Which one of the following is radical?
a. NH4+
b. CUSO4
c. CH4
d. NH3

The unit that is a radical among the options is;

a. NH₄⁺

Explanation:

A radical is an atom, group of atoms molecule or ion that contains an electron that is unpaired. The presence of the unpaired electrons make radical very reactive as such most radicals enter into reactions with other species or with themselves to form new compounds making them not last long.

Radicals are also known as free radicals. Examples of radicals includes; Ammonium ion, NH₄⁺

Nitrate ion NO₃⁻ (From a salt)

Hydroxide ion OH⁻ (From a base)

Sulphate ion SO₄²⁺ (From an acid)

All of which are formed in aqueous solution of acids, salts and bases.

we have been given a quadratic function and we need to restrict the domain such that it becomes a one to one function.

we know that vertex of this quadratic function occurs at (5,2).

further, we know that range of this function is .

if we restrict the domain of this function to either or , it will become one to one function.

let us know find its inverse.

upon interchanging x and y, we get:

let us now solve this function for y.

hence, the inverse function would be if we restrict the domain of original function to and the inverse function would be if we restrict the domain to .
