Noble gases are typically highly unreactive except when under particular extreme conditions. The inertness of noble gases makes them very suitable in applications where reactions are not wanted. The noble gases have full valence electron shells. Valence electrons are the outermost electrons of an atom and are normally the only electrons that participate in chemical bonding.

It sinks in air because it has a high density as is therefore often found in the basements of homes, particularly in areas where with a lot of shale and boulders in the soil. Radon results from the radioactive decay of radium in the soil, and it further decays to produce radioactive daughters including polonium and lead.

They are all monatomic gases under standard conditions, including the elements with larger atomic masses than many normally solid elements.

It has a very low boiling point, and is monatomic. Helium is small and extremely light, and is the least reactive of all elements; it does not react with any other elements or ions, so there are no helium-bearing minerals in nature. Helium was first observed by studying the sun, and was named after the Greek word for the sun, Helios.

It explains background radiation, particularly from radon gas, its link to increased lung cancer risk for smokers, and emphasizes the importance of testing homes for radon levels. Additionally, it suggests affordable methods to mitigate radon exposure in residential areas.
