Under normal conditions krypton is colourless, odourless, fairly expensive gas. Solid krypton is a white crystalline substance with a face-centered cubic structure which is common to all the "rare gases". Krypton difluoride, KrF2.
Krypton is present to a small extent (about 1 ppm by volume) in the atmosphere and is obtained as a byproduct from the liquefaction and separation of air. This would not normally be carried out in the laboratory and krypton is available commercially in cylinder.
It used with argon as a low-pressure filling gas for fluorescent lights.It used in some photographic flash lamps for high-speed photography, lamps, UV-laser spectral line used for international measurement of a metre.
