  2. Sum of radicals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sum_of_radicals

    In mathematics, a sum of radicals is defined as a finite linear combination of n th roots: =, where , are natural numbers and , are real numbers.. A particular special case arising in computational complexity theory is the square-root sum problem, asking whether it is possible to determine the sign of a sum of square roots, with integer coefficients, in polynomial time.

  3. Free-radical addition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-radical_addition

    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 ...

  4. Markovnikov's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markovnikov's_rule

    Free-radical intermediate is stabilized by hyperconjugation; adjacent occupied sigma C–H orbitals donate into the electron-deficient radical orbital. A new method of anti-Markovnikov addition has been described by Hamilton and Nicewicz, who utilize aromatic molecules and light energy from a low-energy diode to turn the alkene into a cation ...

  5. Reversible addition−fragmentation chain-transfer polymerization

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reversible_addition%E2%88...

    The total number of radicals delivered to the system by the initiator during the course of the polymerization is low compared to the number of RAFT agent molecules, meaning that the R group initiated polymer chains from the re-initiation step form the majority of the chains in the system, rather than initiator fragment bearing chains formed in ...

  6. Radical polymerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radical_polymerization

    The free radical uses one electron from the pi bond to form a more stable bond with the carbon atom. The other electron returns to the second carbon atom, turning the whole molecule into another radical. This begins the polymer chain. Figure 12 shows how the orbitals of an ethylene monomer interact with a radical initiator. [9]

    A number-line visualization of the algebraic addition 2 + 4 = 6. A "jump" that has a distance of 2 followed by another that is long as 4, is the same as a translation by 6. A number-line visualization of the unary addition 2 + 4 = 6. A translation by 4 is equivalent to four translations by 1.

  9. Free-radical theory of aging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-radical_theory_of_aging

    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 ...
