Potential buyers of a house ask for an inspection prior to the purchase. The inspector notesthat the geology underlying the house is known to have “hot spots” of radon emissions. Uponinvestigation the house is found to be on a hot spot that emits 2.0 pCi · m–2 · s–1 of radon gas.The ambient concentration outside of the house is negligible. The house basement and firstfloor each have a floor space of 56 m2. The ceiling height in both the basement and the firstfloor is 2.3 m. Does the concentration exceed the action level of 4 pCi · L–1 of air?
