Radon, a noble gas, can cause lung cancer when it is inhaled in significant amounts over time. It is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that emanates from the decay of uranium in soil and rock. Prolonged exposure to radon in homes or buildings can lead to an increased risk of lung cancer, particularly for smokers. Proper ventilation and testing can help mitigate radon levels.
