Radon is a radioactive chemical element that is created through the natural radioactive decay of uranium. Since uranium occurs naturally throughout our planet, we also find radon naturally.
The element, Radon is one of the Noble Gases like Helium and Neon that do not form compounds. Thus Radon is always found in the Pure State.
radon is a noble gas, so it does not form compounds.
Noble gases belong to group 0 and can be found on the extreme right column of the periodic table of elements. The heaviest noble gas would be radon, whose atomic mass is still uncertain. The element which appears below radon in the column, ununoctium, has not been confirmed as a noble gas.
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.
Radon is a gas at room temperature, and quite a bit below it, too. A link can be found below.
Radon (Rn)
Radon (gas)
Helium, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Hydrogen, and Argon. There is also Neon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon.
Radon is a natural radioactive gas.
Radon is a natural radioactive gas.
Radon exist in rocks containing uranium or thorium.
Mean concentration of radon in air: 150 atoms/cm3 Radon in the earth crust: 4.10-16 mg/kg Radon in the sea water: 6.10-19 mg/L
Radon is a member of the noble gases group: helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, radon.
Near Radium.

Radon is a gas found in the air. It can cause lung cancer so beware!
