In the past radium was used for the radiotherapy of some cancers or as a component of luminescent paintings. Now radium has very limited uses: source of neutrons as Ra-Be, source of radon, research laboratories.
Ra stands for Radium on the periodic table. Radium is a radioactive element with atomic number 88 and is commonly used in medicine for some cancer treatments.
As radium is radioactive, radium chloride would also be radioactive. Any compounds make with any radioactive material are radioactive, and they cannot be "not" radioactive. Radioactive material doesn't really care if it is "alone" or in compound; it will be radioactive in any case.
The first name was radium; some isotopes had in the past other names.
Radium has an atomic number of 88, which means it has 88 protons in its nucleus. This characteristic defines it as an element and determines its position on the periodic table. Radium is a radioactive alkaline earth metal, and its isotopes have various applications in medicine and industry.
The atomic mass of the radium isotope 226Ra is 226,025 409 8(25).

Radium is not used in asphalt.

Radium is not used to produce energy.
It isn't used for anything anymore--they have better, safer isotopes to do the things radium was once used for.
Polonium is not used for the treatment of cancers. Radium is used to treat bone cancers.
Radium was used in the past as a radioactive source in the radiotherapy of some cancers.
Radium was discovered in 1898 !
Radium is used today to treat Cancer and other medical caused deseases. It is also used in watch hands and gauges in airplanes. Radium is RADIOACTIVE and is not something to mess with.
The atomic mass of the radium isotope 226Ra is 226,025 409 8(25).
Of course, many scientists worked with radium and polonium.
