Krypton is a noble gas found in trace amounts in the Earth's atmosphere, primarily produced by the decay of uranium and thorium. It is also released during volcanic eruptions and is extracted commercially from liquid air through distillation.

Is krypton man made?

Krypton is an element, and all elements are the result of nuclear fission, nuclear fusion or radioactive decay. Krypton is one of the byproducts of the nuclear fission of Uranium and Plutonium, either from atomic bombs or nuclear reactors. Since Krypton is not one of the results of a natural radioactive decay chain, the only other possible source of Krypton is from nuclear fusion, and the only source of fusion powerful enough to produce it would be a supernova.


What are the main characteristics of Krypton?

Krypton is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, inert gas, and considered to be non-toxic. Although it is extremely unreactive krypton can react with fluorine, and a few compounds of the element have been prepared, including krypton (II) fluoride and krypton clathrates. Krypton is characterized by several sharp emission lines (spectral signatures) the strongest being green and yellow. It is one of the products of uranium fission. Solidified krypton is white and crystalline with a face-centered cubic crystal structure, which is a common property of all noble gases.
