After 11 half-lives (42 days), radon radioactivity is at 1/2 000 of its original level. At this stage, the predominant residual activity is due to the radon decay product 210 Pb, whose half-life (22.3 years) is 2 000 times that of radon, and its descendants 210 Bi and 210 Po, totalling 0.03% of the initial seed activity.

2) and the high positive charge on radon in RnF +; spatial separation of RnF 2 molecules may be necessary to clearly identify higher fluorides of radon, of which RnF 4 is expected to be more stable than RnF 6 due to spin–orbit splitting of the 6p shell of radon (Rn IV would have a closed-shell 6s 2 6p 2 1/2 configuration). Therefore, while RnF
Radon is a major cause of cancer; it is estimated to contribute to ~2% of all cancer related deaths in Europe. [1] Radium, like radon, is radioactive and is found in small quantities in nature and is hazardous to life if radiation exceeds 20-50 mSv/year. Radium is a decay product of uranium and thorium. [2]

In Cool It, Lomborg argues his view that many of the elaborate and expensive actions being considered to stop global warming will cost hundreds of billions of dollars without the same return on investment, often are based on emotional rather than strictly scientific assumptions, and may have very little impact on the world's temperature for centuries.
