Radon is a radioactive gas. It's naturally produced from the decay of uranium and thorium found in rocks and soil.🧑‍🔬 Radon itself decays, emitting alpha particles and producing other radioactive elements as it breaks down. 👩‍🔬 This decay process can lead to health risks, particularly lung cancer, when radon accumulates indoors, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). #science #exploremore #education #knowledge #experience #usa #unitedkingdom #experimental #australia #radiation | L
