What is the most harmful isotope of Radon?
Radon-222 is the most harmful isotope of radon. It is radioactive and decays into other radioactive elements called radon progeny, which can attach to dust particles and be inhaled, increasing the risk of lung cancer.
What is the name of the isotope with 86 protons and 136 neutrons?
The isotope with 86 protons and 136 neutrons is radium-222.
What is radon's atomic mass?
Radon has 34 isotopes; each isotope has a different atomic mass. See the link.
What element Nobel gas with atomic mass of 226?
Radon has atomic mass of 222. There is isotope of Radon with mass number 226. Radon is a Nobel gas.
Is radon 222 an indoor particle?
Radon-222 is a radioactive gas that is a natural byproduct of the decay of uranium in soil and rocks. It can seep into buildings through cracks in foundations and accumulate indoors. While not a particle itself, radon-222 can decay into solid radioactive particles called radon progeny, which can pose health risks when inhaled.
Is radon 222 unstable or stable?
no because it is so radioative its so unstable.
When a radon 222 nucleus decays what is the other product that forms?
Radon-222 undergoes alpha decay to produce polonium-218as a daughter.
What is the weight of radon?
222 Amu (atomic mass units) Each isotope of radon has a different atomic mass; see the link. The density of radon is 9,73 g/L.
What is the balanced reaction for the predominant method of decay of radon?
In the case of Rn-222, which is the "isotope of concern" because it occurs naturally, it decays as follows: 222Rn => 218Po + He+2 In this equation, we see the radon isotope Rn-222 emit an alpha particle (the helium nucleus) and undergo a transformation to become the polonium isotope, Po-218.
What is the half life of radon 222?
The half life of 222Rn, the naturally found isotope of radon, is 3.8235 days.
Which noble gas has a radioactive isotope?
Radon is a noble gas and is radioactive. All of the other noble gasses have at least some synthetic radioactive isotopes. Radioactive isotopes of both krypton and argon exist in nature in trace quantities.
If radium 226 releases an alpha particle what is mass number of isotope formed?
Radium 226--------alpha particle-------- Radon 222
