Solution:
The most radioactive element is uranium
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Radioactive elements emit
The half-life of radioactive substance is the time taken by a substance to decay half of its original value. A radioactive isotope with lower half-life decays fast as compared to another radioactive isotopes.
The given plot shows that uranium
So, the most radioactive element is uranium
