Thorium can be combined with the majority of non-metals.
If elements did not combine then life would not exist. The would be no compounds or mixtures of any kind. Chemical and nuclear reactions would not take place. All bodies in the universe could consist of a single type of element.
It would form a compund. For example, the most famous coumpoud is H2O. This compound is made out of two Hydrogen molecules and one oxygen.
No lead does not combine with any other elements.....it is one of the only dangerous elements therefor it would be a hazard
Thorium, with the chemical symbol Th, is the chemical element with the atomic number 90.
The Law of Definite Proportions says that a given chemical compound always contains the same proportion by mass of its constituent elements. This is NOT the same as saying that elements always combine in a specific ratio, because they can combine in different ratios in different compounds. An example of this might be copper oxide which can be CuO or Cu2O, showing a different ratio of copper to oxygen. So, the answer to the question, as asked, is no, elements do not always combine in specific ratios.
we would not be alive

That would be a compound. Combine the elements of hydrogen and oxygen, and get a compound (water) that is quite different from the two gasses you started with.
It would form a compund. For example, the most famous coumpoud is H2O. This compound is made out of two Hydrogen molecules and one oxygen.
It depends on the elements that are combining. if they are a metal and a nonmetal then it would be an ionic compound. If they are both nonmetals then it would be a molecular compound.

Hydrogen gas used for fuel would have to be contained in a pressurized container. You would not combine it with any other elements inside the container.
ewan q . pota
Yes it combines with many nonmetals such as halogens, oxygen, sulfur etc. Generally form covalent bonds with these elements.

No. A compound does not retain the properties of its component elements.
Thorium, with the chemical symbol Th, is the chemical element with the atomic number 90.
