Tungsten is an element. It has chemical symbol W. An element is a pure substance that cannot be further broken down into simpler substances through chemical means. A compound, on the other hand, is a substance that is composed of two or more elements that are chemically combined.

Is tungsten a compound mixture or element?

Tungsten carbide is a metallic chemical compound. Unlike steel, it is not a mixture or alloy. The chemical formula for tungsten carbide is WC, indicating that the number of atoms of tungsten (W) in a sample of tungsten carbide is equal to the number of number of atoms of carbon (C) in that sample. Because each atom of tungsten weighs about 15.3 times as much as each atom of carbon, almost 94% of the mass of a sample of tungsten carbide is represented by tungsten atoms. Although tungsten carbide is not itself a mixture, it is often mixed (alloyed) with other metals such as nickel or cobalt.
