Radon (Rn)
No. Volcanoes have vents. Vents are holes though which ash, gas, and lava can erupt.
Texas experiences a relatively low number of earthquakes compared to more seismically active states like California. However, it has recorded thousands of small earthquakes, particularly in areas like the Permian Basin and near the border with Mexico. Notable events include the 1931 Valentine earthquake and more recent swarms in the 2010s related to oil and gas extraction activities. Overall, while Texas isn't known for large earthquakes, it does experience seismic activity.
No, but its moon, Titan, may have volcanoes.
An earthquake does not produce any particular smell. Indirect effects of earthquakes may rupture gas lines and start fires and so create the smell of natural gas or of various materials burning.

radon
Radon is the gas that can [or cannot!] be used to predict earthquakes. Its levels noticeably may rise in basements and wells. That's because of the air and water escape routes that may form in soil 6-24 hours before an earthquake.
Radon gas may or may not be used to predict an earthquake. Scientists in Chile and Italy sometimes find increased levels of radon gas in wells 6-24 hours before an earthquake. The increase is due to tiny escape routes that form during the crustal [or lithospheric or tectonic] plate activities that lead to earthquakes. Specifically, an example of a successful prediction based on radon gas levels is the warning by Gran Sasso laboratory researcher Giampaolo Giuliani of the April 7, 2009 in the region of Abruzzo.
In order to try to predict a volcanic eruption, scientists monitor the distribution of earthquakes near the volcano, the quantity, temperature, and composition of gas emissions, and look for deformation of the volcano itself. All of these can be used to determine if magma is moving underground, how close it is to the surface, and even how obstructed it is.
Radium is a solid, radon is a gas. Both are radioactive.
radon
A radioactive noble gas is a noble gas element that has unstable isotopes, meaning they undergo radioactive decay. An example is radon, which is naturally occurring and emits alpha particles as it decays. These gases can pose health risks if inhaled, as their radioactive decay products can damage cells in the respiratory system.

Radon gas was not used in Korea in 1953. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that is not typically used intentionally in military or industrial applications.
No. Radon is a radioactive noble gas.
Radon is a colorless radioactive gas considered to be a health hazard.
Nothing abnormal; radon is also a noble gas and radioactive.
