You may need radon testing or radon mitigation for your home if the air is below 4 picocuries per liter (pCi/L) in indoor air.

What equipment would I need for radon testing?

You need a radon detector to perform radon testing. Essentially it's a geiger counter. Radon is radioactive and you locate it just the same way. Many radon alarms are available for areas where Radon is a problem. You would need a radon detector for radon testing. You can purchase one from amazon.com for $130 shipped. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000CEAY64


Who what is the heaviest of the naturally occurring noble gases?

Radon is the name of the heaviest noble gas.


Is radon gas really that dangerous?

Yes, because radon is a radioactive gas; but in the nature it is impossible to find radon as gas or solid. Radon would be dangerous whether it was Solid or a Liquid. However Radon is a noble gas meaning it cannot be found. It is radiocative and doesnt contribute to the Natural Background Radiation.


What is the color of radon?

In the gaseous (normal) state, radon is a colorless gas, as is true of all noble gases (see: xenon, krypton, neon, argon, helium). Due to its high radioactivity a radon light is impractical, but if one were constructed it would glow yellow-green. In the solid state, things get very interesting with radon. As radon solidifies, it glows yellow, and then with decreasing temperature, glows an angry orange-red. This glow, or nightshine, comes from the Cerenkov light -- a product if radon's intense radioactivity. Needless to say, if you ever are viewing a glowing radon tube, you had best be standing behind very thick leaded glass.


What would be the atomic number of the noble gas after radon?

neon

What is an example of a group?

A control group is a group in an experiment that is under normal conditions. If one was testing out fertilizer, the control group would be a plant with just normal dirt.
