Radical
-OH is a functional group called hydroxyl group, commonly referred to as a radical in organic chemistry. It is not an ion because it does not carry a net positive or negative charge.
The monovalent radical that consists of two atoms is the hydride ion (H-). It has a single negative charge and is composed of two hydrogen atoms.
"Radical biology" refers to the role of free radicals in living organisms.
The function of a radical in math is to indicate the operation of taking the root of a number. It is represented by placing a radical symbol (√) before the number. The number inside the radical is known as the radicand.
OH
OH- is the ion hydroxide and OH. is the radical hydroxyl.
Examples: hydroxyl radical (OH.) and the superoxide anion O2(-).
OH is the radical. It has an unpaired electron, making it highly reactive and capable of participating in various chemical reactions.

Radical
(OH)x is hydroxyl or hidroxyde (OH)- or radical .(OH) or an alcoholic group
OH- is a base radical because it can accept a proton (H+) to form water (H2O). Acids, on the other hand, donate protons in a chemical reaction.
A compound that contains the hydroxyl OH radical is called an alcohol. Alcohols are organic compounds that have a hydroxyl functional group attached to a carbon atom. Examples include ethanol (found in alcoholic beverages) and methanol (used as a solvent).
It has a negative one charge (1-)
A base contain the radical (OH)-.
