Yes. A radioactive atom is a radioactive atom. If that atom exists as a single atom and is uncombined and it is radioactive, it's radioactive. If that same atom is chemically combined with another or other atoms, it's still radioactive. It's just that simple.

Why non-radioactive substances became radioactive when placed near a radium compound?
The particles emitted by a radioactive substance can change other atoms, and in some cases, they will turn into radioactive isotopes.
A substance is labeled as being radioactive The substance is?
Radioactive.
Is radioactive waste a pure substance or a mixture?
Radioactive waste is nearly always a mixture but it is possible to be a pure substance.
Is plutonium a radioactive substance?
Yes
If radium and chlorine combine to form radium chloride what is true about the compound?
As radium is radioactive, radium chloride would also be radioactive. Any compounds make with any radioactive material are radioactive, and they cannot be "not" radioactive. Radioactive material doesn't really care if it is "alone" or in compound; it will be radioactive in any case.

What is plotonium?
You mean plutonium.... Plutonium is a radioactive substance which is a compound of Radon through fission energy made by Marie Curie.
What is the difference between a non-radioactive substance and a radioactive substance?
Radioactive substances are unstable as a result of the extra neutrons present in the nuclei of the substance. Non-radioactive substances are stable.
