Radon difluoride (RnF
2
) is a compound of

radioactivity of radon. The longest-lived isotope, radon-222, has a half-life of only 3.82 days, which decays by α-emission to yield polonium-218.[4]

Preparation

When radon is heated to 400 °C with fluorine, radon difluoride is formed.[1]

Reactions

Radon difluoride can be reduced to radon and hydrogen fluoride when heated with hydrogen gas at 500 °C.[1]
