You need to go to the American Association of Radon Scientists and Technologists to have it tested. These tests coast between 100 to 300 dollars.

How can you take floor wax off granite counter?

Very carefully. Granite is such a wide variety of stones, it is impossible to tell what cleaning product will damage a particular stone. Try any product on a scrap of the same type before using.


How can you tell if your granite emits radiation?

It does. All granite has some detectable radiation emission (above so-called background radiation). The question of "how much" is answered by measurement. Employ someone to test your granite or buy a sensitive Geiger counter or scintillation counter. Beware the eBay equipment selling cheap: these are surplus civil defense units used to detect man-killing amounts of radiation after a nuclear blast. You can click on the links below to learn more. That's the bad news. Now a bit of good news. It should be noted that anyone uncomfortable with the use of granite in their home is best advised to "go to school" and learn some things. You should get up to speed on what is necessary to understand the nature of the problem and what the effects are. Yes, it's nuclear physics, but it is understandable to just about anyone who wishes to simply read up. Some related questions might be a good place to start, and you can find them linked below. Get an accurate set of facts, and a "balanced" set of opinions. The decision to choose granite in new construction or to keep existing stone in your home is one that must be looked at like making a decision to, say, drive from Los Angles to Las Vegas. It's one that should be made after assessing the risks. As regards the driving, you will probably arrive safely, but it is possible you can be killed on the freeway if you elect to buzz over to Las Vegas for a weekend of handle-pulling, dice throwing or card drawing. And you expose yourself to a little extra radiation (above the so-called background radiation that bathes us from conception to grave and zaps us a bit all the time) by selecting or retaining granite as a construction material. What is the acceptable level of exposure for you? Know the facts and make an informed decision. A wise person would advise this, and a wise person would take that advice.


How do you get the clock to the rover on Lunar Colony island?

Well, it isn't a clock, it's a Geiger Counter, used to detect radiation. Climb up the center and push one of the metal beams to the left to make a ramp. Push the counter down the ramp to the rover. When you leave the Rock Lab, the counter will tell you if you are getting close to the radiation source. It is only a very short drive below the Rock Lab.


How can you tell if a hid bulb is blown?

when HID bulbs blow up they can actually just be emitting the wrong kind of light. you can't see it but it is actually emitting powerful infared radiation. you can check for this by turning the bulbs to where they are supposed to be on and then placing a block of ice in front of the affected bulb. if the bulb is blown the ice will not melt. if it works, it will melt the ice

How can you tell if a substance is radioactive?

With a geiger counter. It can detect radioactive particles. That is the most common, modern way. In Ernest Rutherford's 'Gold Foil' Experiment, he visible saw radioactive particles by using a sheet of Zinc Sulfide that lit up when it was hit by an alpha particle (form of radiation).
