      I think could be the Carbon because you can almost find it everywhere!

      How about Uranium, the heaviest stable element that exists?

      Caesium! It’s so reactive to water, a little lump of it thrown into a bathtub of water would blow up the bath! Search for ‘Caesium in water’ on Youtube 😀

      (I use caesium in my ion source, that’s another reason I like it.)
