Much of the biological damage caused by ionizing radiation results from interactions with water. Upon striking water radiation will remove an electron from water, forming H2O+. Reaction of H2O+ with a molecule of water would produce what two species, one of which is highly reactive and damaging to tissue? Draw the reactants, and think how they could react to guide you in answering this question. hydroxide ion and hydronium ion H2(g) and hydroxide ion H2(g) and hydroxyl radical hydronium ion...
