Q. Cancer treatment is done by which of the following noble gas?
Answer:
Radon
Notes: Radon is used in radiotherapy for cancer treatment. Radon is the heaviest known gas, is radioactive and is essentially inert. At ordinary temperatures, radon is a colorless gas, but when it is cooled below its freezing point it gains stunning phosphorescence. One problem with radiation therapy is that it often kills healthy tissue alongside cancerous tissue.
