How do the properties of radium differ from the properties of the compounds formed by radium?

Radium glows in the dark and is radioactive. When it decays into Radon gas, it emits alpha particles. It is fairly close to its compound radiumchlorite because like radium, it also decays emiting alpha particles. However, radiumchlorite is used to help cure canser. Overal, radium is like its most comon compound but can also have properties not related to its compounds at all.
