The hydroxyl radical, Lewis structure shown, contains one unpaired electron. Lewis dot structure of a Hydroxide ion compared to a hydroxyl radical. In chemistry, a radical, also known as a free radical, is an atom, molecule, or ion that has at least one unpaired valence electron.

It is the combining form of Radical 170 when used on the left of a character, as in 阪, and of Radical 163 when used on the right of a character, as in 部. In Unicode, ⻖ (U+2ED6) is listed as CJK RADICAL MOUND TWO [1] (meaning 阜 - left) and ⻏ (U+2ECF) is listed as CJK RADICAL CITY [2] (meaning 邑 - right).
A free-radical reaction is any chemical reaction involving free radicals.This reaction type is abundant in organic reactions.Two pioneering studies into free radical reactions have been the discovery of the triphenylmethyl radical by Moses Gomberg (1900) and the lead-mirror experiment [1] described by Friedrich Paneth in 1927.
Distribution of the number of entries per radical in the Kangxi Dictionary. The Kangxi dictionary lists a total of 47,035 characters divided among the 214 radicals, for an average of 220 characters per radical; however, the distribution is unequal, with the median number of characters per radical being 64, the maximum number being 1,902 (for radical 140 艸), and the minimum being 5 (for ...
Chain propagation: A radical reacts with a non-radical to produce a new radical species; Chain termination: Two radicals react with each other to create a non-radical species; In a free-radical addition, there are two chain propagation steps. In one, the adding radical attaches to a multiply-bonded precursor to give a radical with lesser bond ...
The free radical theory of aging states that organisms age because cells accumulate free radical damage over time. [1] A free radical is any atom or molecule that has a single unpaired electron in an outer shell. [2] While a few free radicals such as melanin are not chemically reactive, most biologically relevant free radicals are highly ...
