How are the risks of Radon known if it’s so unstable that an accurate molecular weight is still unknown?
In: 1
Because Radon is a gaseous byproduct of radiation in the ground. It being a byproduct means that it happens anywhere there’s a high amount of uranium, and it being gaseous means that it’s pretty hard to isolate and study it’s own properties independent of the environment.
But even with that, we do have a molecular weight. https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/Radon
