Tritium is the only radioactive form of hydrogen. It is a hydrogen isotope with two neutrons in its nucleus, making it unstable and radioactive.
Hydrogen has one very rare radioactive isotope: hydrogen-3, commonly known as tritium; also some artificial radioactive isotopes as 4H, 5H, 6H.
Hydrogen itself is not radioactive. However, tritium, a radioactive isotope of hydrogen, is used in some applications like certain types of nuclear reactors and in nuclear weapons. It emits low-energy beta radiation and has a half-life of around 12 years.
Some examples are deuterium and tritium which are radioactive isotopes of hydrogen.

Hydrogen is not naturally radioactive. It is the simplest and most abundant element in the universe, made up of one proton and one electron. However, under certain conditions, hydrogen can be made radioactive through artificial processes, such as bombarding it with high-energy particles in a laboratory setting.
There are four naturally occurring isotopes of iron, 54Fe, which is radioactive, and 56Fe, 57Fe, and 58Fe, which are not radioactive. 54Fe accounts for 5.8% of the naturally occurring iron. In addition, there are 27 synthetic isotopes of iron, all of which are radioactive.
Uranium, boron, hydrogen are chemical elements. Salt (NaCl) is a chemical compound.
It is not radioactive, under normal circumstances.
No, heavy water is not radioactive. It is a form of water where the hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen. Heavy water is commonly used in nuclear reactors as a neutron moderator.
Tritium--a radioactive isotope of hydrogen
Hydrogen has only one natural radioactive isotope(3H), of cosmogenic origin, but only in ultratraces on the earth. Sodium has two radioactive natural isotopes (22Na and 24Na), of cosmogenic origin, but only in ultratraces on the earth. Oxygen has not natural radioactive isotopes. All the isotopes of uranium are radioactive.
