Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: To determine the chemical formula for superoxide ion.
Concept introduction: The human body inhale
ROS are important for the body but they have to be eliminated when they are not required as they are harmful when not needed.
(b)
Interpretation: To determine the chemical formula for hydroxyl radical.
Concept introduction: The human body inhale
ROS are important for the body but they have to be eliminated when they are not required. They are harmful to the human body so they are eliminated when they are not needed.
