25. Latent heat constant is 2400 J/g At the same time to increase the temperature of 1 m 3 of air by 1 C is necessary only 200 J. It means that condensation can significantly to increase the air temperature. Ionization + hydration effectiveness depends on the number of water molecules which 10 8 are attached to one ion. For the particle of 3 μ size the relationship of thermal energy released to energy necessary to ionize the air gas molecule (15-20 eV) is near 10 8 Basing on 3 different sources: Segovia et al, 2005; Inan et al., 2008, and Spivak, 2008 the mean radon activity can be estimated as 2000 Bq/m 3. Each  -particle emitted by 222 Rn with the average energy of E  =5.46 MeV can produce ~ 3  10 5 electron-ion pairs what gives the ions production rate ~6  10 8 m -3 s -1. ~ 8 W/m 2
