Iron sulfate. Calcium carbonate. Ammonium nitrate. You've heard these names, but have you noticed? Each one contains a group of atoms that travels TOGETHER never splitting apart, even when the compound dissolves or reacts. That inseparable group is called a radical. Radicals are chemistry's ready-made teams: each one has its own charge and its own combining power. Once you recognise them, writing and reading chemical formulas becomes ten times easier! Today, you meet Radicals the groups that stick together through everything. Ready to meet chemistry's most loyal partners?
