Polonium is often considered to be the most radioactive element, but there are far more radioactive elements like nobelium and lawrencium. However, the most radioactive elements are man-made like ununtrium and ununseptium. Out of these, ununoctium is the most radioactive but scientists are continuing to make even more radioactive elements today.

Which is the heaviest radioactive element?

The heaviest natural radioactive element is Uranium.Man made elements are continuously being made. The latest heaviest superheavyweight man made element to be discovered is element 117 (it is still so new that it hasn't been given a name yet).A little different bit of information about Fermium, a team has captured a piece of its spectrum-the wavelengths of light it absorbs-making it the heaviest element ever to be so measured. It was made in the 1952 detonation of the first thermonuclear bomb. It does not make it as the heaviest element, just the heaviest to have it's light spectrum captured.
