Reply to comment by stefek132 in Radon is a monatomic gas, but its decay products are solids. After a decay, what happens to the individual atoms of the daughter elements? Do they stay suspended in the atmosphere or slowly rain out? by foodtower

There is no way that it is more likely to find other lead atoms, which are only there at trace amounts as decay products, before it interacts with trillions upon trillions of other gas molecules... many of which are reactive.
