74Learn more about the atomic number.
Atomic Mass
183,84Learn more about the atomic mass.
Atomic Symbol
WState at 20 °C
SolidDescription
Hard, steel-gray to white metal. Highest melting point of all metals.Uses
Made into filaments for vacuum tubes and electric lights. Also as contact points in cars. Combined with calcium or magnesium it makes phosphors. Tungsten carbide is extremely hard and is used for making cutting tools and abrasives.Name Origin
Swedish: tung sten (heavy stone): symbol from its German name wolfram.Sources
Occurs in the minerals scheelite (CaWO4) and wolframite [(Fe,Mn)WO4].Discovery
Discovered By: Fausto and Juan José de ElhuyarYear: 1783
Location: Spain

Citation
When you need to include a fact or piece of information in an assignment or essay you should also include where and how you found that piece of information.That gives credibility to your paper and it is sometimes required in higher education.
To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:
Luz, Gelson. "Valence Electrons in Tungsten (W) [& Facts, Color, Discovery ..." Materials. Gelsonluz.com. dd mmmm. yyyy. <URL>
Now replace dd, mmmm and yyyy with the day, month, and year you browsed this page. Also replace URL for the actual url of this page (The < and > stay, ok?). This citation format is based on MLA.
