Yes, californium is a pure chemical element, not a compound or
mixture.
Californium has a metallic luster, making it appear shiny. However, due to its radioactivity and the fact that it is mostly produced in labs, californium is not commonly seen or handled in its pure form.
Yes, californium can form compounds with other elements due to its radioactive nature and high reactivity. It can potentially combine with elements such as oxygen, nitrogen, and halogens to form various compounds.
Oh, dude, californium doesn't have a smell because it's a radioactive element that's super rare and not something you'd just come across sniffing around. It's like asking what a unicorn's favorite color is - it's just not something you can really answer. So, yeah, californium doesn't smell like anything because it's not exactly hanging out at the perfume counter.
Californium is a synthetic element that is radioactive and only exists in minute quantities. It is a metallic element that would typically form ionic bonds with other elements, due to its tendency to lose electrons and form positive ions.
Californium is not flammable, as it is a radioactive metal that does not support combustion.
Californium is a pure element.

Californium has probably a silvery appearance (the pure metal was not obtained).
Californium is a solid metal at room temperature.
Californium can react with oxygen, hydrogen, sulfur, nitrogen, halogens, etc.
Californium is able to form a critical mass.
From what I have read, it is fairly reactive and does form compounds but not explosively. It does have biohazard properties.

Not californium, but neutrons emitted by californium.
All the isotopes of californium are radioactive, artificial and unstable.
