Purpose wise, Carbon is a lot better. But, career wise, Prostreet kicks the Carbon right out of Carbon. I own both and love them equally :-)
Heavier than tungsten lighter than osmium?
rhenium
Is there a metal like vibranium?
yes there are two metals are closest to vibranium one is titanium but it is heavy and the good conductor of electricicty it can catch electricity fastly and it's melting point is 1660c so unlikely titanium i like carbon with the melting point of 3624c more than tungsten and it is also conduct with electricity so and lighter than titanium and tungsten so to built iron man armour carbon is the best choice
Is diamond stronger than tungsten?
Yes.
Do tungsten Cambridge rings have gold in them?
No, tungsten carbide rings do not have gold in them. Rings that are made from tungsten are actually about 10 times harder than those that are made with 18K gold.
Is there a quality difference between tungsten and tungsten carbide?
Yes, there is a quality difference between tungsten and tungsten carbide. Tungsten carbide is a compound made by combining tungsten metal with carbon atoms. It is much harder and more durable than pure tungsten. Tungsten carbide is commonly used in various industries for its excellent strength and resistance to wear and corrosion.
What element is heavier than tungsten but lighter than osium?
Rhenium
Is burning oil better than coal?
