How does Xenon effect nature?

Xenon does not have any particular effect for two reasons:it is inert so does not easily react with other substances,it accounts for 1 part in 10 million (0.00001%) of the Earth's atmosphere.


What are the hazards of xenon?

Xenon is generally non-toxic at normal atmospheric concentrations. However, inhaling high levels of xenon gas can displace oxygen, leading to oxygen deprivation. Inhaling xenon in large quantities can also cause dizziness, nausea, and asphyxiation.

What do humans use xenon for?

Xenon produces a beautiful blue glow when excited by an electrical discharge. Xenon lamps have applications as high-speed electronic flash bulbs used by photographers, sunbed lamps and bactericidal lamps used in food preparation and processing. Xenon lamps are also used in ruby lasers. Xenon difluoride is used to etch silicon microprocessors. Xenon ion propulsion systems are used by satellites.

Is the element xenon toxic to humans?

No. Xenon is chemically inert and therefore nontoxic. However, like any other gas it takes up space and can therefore displace oxygen. Such a lack of oxygen can be fatal.


How do humans get the element xenon?

Xenon is obtained as a byproduct of separating and purifying air, where it is present in trace amounts. It can also be extracted from certain minerals or as a byproduct of nuclear fission reactions. Commercially, xenon is typically obtained through fractional distillation of liquid air.
