Will the radioactive property remain in an ionic compound when a metal element is highly radioactive combined with a non-metal element which is non-radioactive?
A radioactive material is radioactive. Period. The atoms of radioactive material have unstable nuclei. If you combine them with other material, the radioactive material will remain unaffected as regards its radioactivity. Recall that radioactivity is related to the instability of atomic nuclei, and the atomic structure of atomic nuclei are (in general) not involved in chemical bonding. Chemical bonding doesn't affect the stability of the nuclei of atoms. If they are unstable, they will remain so whether the atoms are alone or chemically combined with something else.

Is Di-nitrogen Pentabromide a nonmetal?
No: The distinction between metals and nonmetals is a property of elements or mixtures of elements (alloys), but dinitrogen pentabromide is a compound.
What is formed when two metals or a metal and nonmetal are combined?
When two metals are combined, they form an alloy, which is a solid solution of different metals. When a metal and a nonmetal are combined, they form an ionic compound through the transfer of electrons between the two elements.
What is carbon and argon combined?
When carbon and argon are combined, they do not form a compound. Carbon is a nonmetal element, while argon is a noble gas, so they do not easily react with each other to form a stable compound.
Is Iodine a non-radioactive metal?
No: Iodine is not a metal at all, but a nonmetal. It is not necessarily radioactive, but has some radioactive isotopes.
Is FeO a nonmetal?
FeO is not a nonmetal; it is a compound composed of iron (a metal) and oxygen (a nonmetal).
What is a chemical compound that contains a nonmetal chemically combined with oxygen'?

What are formed when two metals or a metal and nonmetal are combined?
A covalent bond is formed. A molecular compound is formed.

A covalent bond is formed. A molecular compound is formed.
What metal is likely to lose 3 electrons when combined with a nonmetal?
Look at the periodic table of the Elements. Go to group three. All the metals down that list will lose 3 electrons with combined with a nonmetal to form an ionic compound.
What is a radioactive nonmetal At Po Ra Xe none of these?
Astatine is a radioactive, natural element and also a nonmetal similar to halogens.
What is carbon and argon combined?
When carbon and argon are combined, they do not form a compound. Carbon is a nonmetal element, while argon is a noble gas, so they do not easily react with each other to form a stable compound.
Is Iodine a non-radioactive metal?
No: Iodine is not a metal at all, but a nonmetal. It is not necessarily radioactive, but has some radioactive isotopes.
Is Rn radioactive nonmetals?
Yes, Rn is radon a radioactive nonmetal. But the symbol Rn does not stand for "radioactive nonmetal." Rn Radon has no stable isotopes, so yes it is always a radioactive nonmetal.
Is FeO a nonmetal?
FeO is not a nonmetal; it is a compound composed of iron (a metal) and oxygen (a nonmetal).
