  • All you people harping on about carbon and hydrogen...hydrocarbons are if nothing else, the most dull compounds in the universe. Which is where we come to the greatest:
    Francium (Fr)
    Most violently reactive of the group IV elements, and the least stable naturally occurring element of all, its most stable isotope (Fr-233) having a maximum half life of 22 minutes, whereas the second least stable astatine, has a maximum half life of 8.5 hours. Fr reacts violently with water, and is essentially just a king in all the most violent ways.
