Sir <a href="/wiki/William_Ramsay" title="William Ramsay">William Ramsay</a> and <a href="/wiki/Robert_Whytlaw-Gray" title="Robert Whytlaw-Gray">Robert Whytlaw-Gray</a> considered that the radioactive emanations may contain a new element of the noble gas family, and isolated "radium emanation" in 1909 to determine its properties. In 1911, the element Ramsay and Whytlaw-Gray isolated was accepted by the <a href="/wiki/Commission_on_Isotopic_Abundances_and_Atomic_Weights" title="Commission on Isotopic Abundances and Atomic Weights">International Commission for Atomic Weights</a>, and in 1923, the International Committee for Chemical Elements and <a href="/wiki/International_Union_of_Pure_and_Applied_Chemistry" title="International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry">International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry</a> chose radon as the accepted name for the element's most stable isotope, <sup>222</sup>Rn. </p><p>Under standard conditions, radon is gaseous and can be easily inhaled, posing a health hazard. However, the primary danger comes not from radon itself, but from its decay products, known as radon daughters. These decay products, often existing as single atoms or ions, can attach themselves to airborne dust particles. Although radon is a noble gas and does not adhere to lung tissue (meaning it is often exhaled before decaying), the radon daughters attached to dust are more likely to stick to the lungs. This increases the risk of harm, as the radon daughters can cause damage to lung tissue.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Radon and its daughters are, taken together, often the single largest contributor to an individual's <a href="/wiki/Background_radiation" title="Background radiation">background radiation</a> dose, but due to local differences in geology,<sup id="cite_ref-Kusky_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Kusky-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> the level of exposure to radon gas differs by location.

In some countries these tests are methodically done in areas of known systematic hazards. Radon detection devices are commercially available. Digital radon detectors provide ongoing measurements giving both daily, weekly, short-term and long-term average readouts via a digital display. Short-term radon test devices used for initial screening purposes are inexpensive, in some cases free. There are important protocols for taking short-term radon tests and it is imperative that they be strictly followed. The kit includes a collector that the user hangs in the lowest habitable floor of the house for two to seven days. The user then sends the collector to a laboratory for analysis. Long term kits, taking collections for up to one year or more, are also available. An open-land test kit can test radon emissions from the land before construction begins.<sup id="cite_ref-epa_12-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-epa-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Radon concentrations can vary daily, and accurate radon exposure estimates require long-term average radon measurements in the spaces where an individual spends a significant amount of time.<sup id="cite_ref-173" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-173"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>172<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Radon levels fluctuate naturally, due to factors like transient weather conditions, so an initial test might not be an accurate assessment of a home's average radon level.

Measurements between 4 and 10 pCi/L warrant a long-term radon test. Measurements over 10 pCi/L warrant only another short-term test so that abatement measures are not unduly delayed.
