Xenon And Krytron

Satisfactory Essays

Helium is very light so it is used in things such as balloons and zeppelins as is lighter than air so rises above it. Neon is also well known for helping make neon signs because when an electrical current is passed through it will glow an orangey red colour. Argon is used in lightbulbs as it does not react with the metal filament used in light bulbs as it is very inert. Xenon and Krypton are used in fluorescent light bulbs and also some photography equipment as it emits a very bright white light. Radon is used in chemotherapy to help cure cancer.
