How dangerous is it for a child to come into contact with someone who has had radium treatment?
It can be potentially dangerous for a child to come into contact with someone who has recently had radium treatment due to the high radiation levels emitted by radium. Children are more sensitive to radiation exposure and can be at a higher risk of developing health problems as a result. It is important to ensure that proper safety measures are in place and limit close contact with individuals who have undergone radium treatment.

What can you combine radium with?
Radium is most commonly combined with beryllium, to create a neutron source for various applications such as in neutron radiography and in some types of cancer treatment. Combining radium with other elements can be dangerous due to its highly radioactive nature.
Is radium dangerous or explosive?
Yes. Radium is a highly radioactive alkali earth metal, and inhalation, injection, ingestion or body exposure to radium can cause chemical burns, radiation burns and can lead to cancer and other disorders. Radium is chemically similar to calcium, and it has the ability to replace calcuim in bones, which is extremely harmful. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on radium.
Do glowsticks have radium in them?
No, glowsticks do not contain radium. Glowsticks work by a chemical reaction that produces light through chemiluminescence, typically utilizing a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and a phenyl oxalate ester. Radium is a radioactive element that is not used in glowsticks for safety reasons.
