One hacky solution is to make a transparent png file or the same color as the background with the exact dimensions of icon_google
and set it as drawableRight like so:
<Button android:layout_marginTop="80dp" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:paddingLeft="10dp" android:background="@drawable/rectangle_round_white" android:drawableLeft="@drawable/icon_google" android:drawableRight="@drawable/transparent_icon_google" android:layout_marginLeft="20dp" android:layout_marginRight="20dp" android:elevation="5dp" android:text="start with google" android:textAlignment="center" android:textSize="11dp"/>
