What is second highest element for melting point?
After Carbon (in form of diamond), the element Tungsten (W) has the second highest melting point of 3695 K, 3422 °C, 6192 °F
What substance has the highest melting point?
I'm guessing that the answer is hydrogen since its melting point is only a few degrees Kelvin. Second guess is Helium.
What is the melting point of diamonds?
At normal atmospheric pressure, the melting point of diamond is 3550 degrees celsius (6422 F).3823 Kelvin3550 Celsius6422 Fahrenheit3820 degrees Kelvin
How much heat do you need to melt metal?
That depends on the metal. Mercury is liquid at room temperature (melting point -39° C) Tin has a melting point of a few hundred degrees (melting point 232° C) Titanium melts at over a thousand degrees (melting point - 1668° C) Tungsten with the highest melting point of the metal elements melts at 3422 °C
Is a diamond sensitive to heat?
Yes. At a little more than three thousand degrees Celsius, a diamond will actually melt.Another AnswerThe melting point of diamond is 3820 degrees Kelvin, or 6416.33 F, or 6143.18 C.
Can heat destroy a diamond?
Diamond has the highest melting point of any mineral: 3820 degrees Kelvin.
What is second highest element for melting point?
After Carbon (in form of diamond), the element Tungsten (W) has the second highest melting point of 3695 K, 3422 °C, 6192 °F
Is gold having the highest melting point?
No. Carbon has the highest melting point.
Does diamond have a melting point?
Yes, the highest melting point of any natural mineral, 3,550 C or 6,422 F.
How does diamond burn in house fire?
Diamond has the highest melting point of any natural mineral. A diamond will probably not be affected by a 'house fire', but its setting might show damage.
Why do diamonds have such a high melting point?
Diamond is the hardest natural mineral on earth. That this mineral has the highest melting point of any mineral -- 3820 degrees Kelvin -- is logical. You can read more about this mineral, below.
What element of the first eighteen elements has the highest melting point?
Carbon (C) has the highest melting point out of all the elements, and so, as it's in the first 20 elements, it has the highest melting point of the first 20 elements too. Its melting point is 3823K.
Transition metal with the highest melting point?
Tungsten is the metal with the highest melting point.
How is melting point of silicon dioxide lower than melting point of diamond?
Smell
Element with the highest melting point of any pure element?
Carbon has the highest melting point of any element on the Periodic Table. It's melting point is 3823K
Why is the melting point of diamond higher than sulfur?
diamond has a 3 dimensional frame work of carbon and hence has high melting point
How many degrees of heat does it take to burn a diamond?
Diamond has the highest melting point -- 3820 degrees Kelvin: so burning it would require an even higher heat.
