No,, not always. Rational numbers are numbers that can be written as a fraction. Irrational numbers cannot be expressed as a fraction.
Yes it is, but not every real number is a rational number
Yes, it is.
No, and I can prove it: -- The product of two rational numbers is always a rational number. -- If the two numbers happen to be the same number, then it's the square root of their product. -- Remember ... the product of two rational numbers is always a rational number. -- So the square of a rational number is always a rational number. -- So the square root of an irrational number can't be a rational number (because its square would be rational etc.).

If an irrational number is added to, (or multiplied by) a rational number, the result will always be an irrational number.
