The metallic bonding between the 5d electrons , 5 of them unpaired makes the bonding strong enough to make it have highest melting point. Though Cr and Mo have similar conditions but the lanthanide contractions aid to W.

Why tungsten wire used in domestic wiring and why?
because tungsten is a high melting point and its melting temperature so high and long life
What is a gray metal with a high melting point used in incandescent lights?
Tungsten is a metal with a high melting point that is often used in incandescent lamps.
What metal has the highest melting temp?
Tungsten has the highest melting point of all metals
What property does tungsten have that make it suitable for making filament?
the reason that tungsten is better then carbon for light filaments is because the melting point is higher,. the melting point of carbon is only 3550, as where tungstens melting point is 3695
Lowest melting point?
W on the periodic table. the element with the highest melting/boiling point is tungsten.
Why tungsten wire used in domestic wiring and why?
because tungsten is a high melting point and its melting temperature so high and long life
Why tungsten is not made up of carbon whereas it also has high melting point?
Tungsten itself is an element.It has the highest boiling point.
What is a gray metal with a high melting point used in incandescent lights?
Tungsten is a metal with a high melting point that is often used in incandescent lamps.
Is there a metal with a higher melting point than gold?
Tungsten. It has high melting point than gold because it is used in lightbulb.
What is a gray metal with high melting point used in incandescent lights called?
Tungsten is a metal with a high melting point that is often used in incandescent lamps.
Can any ring be soldered to a tungsten ring?
Tungsten rings can not be soldered at all due to its high melting point and hardness.
Why tungsten is used in filament bulb?
It conducts electricity and has a very high melting point, thus it will not melt in high temperatures in light bulbs. In fact, tungsten has the highest melting point of all metals, at about 3400 degrees celcius.
Why can't the tungsten fildament melt?
actually its is filament.now the answertungsten has high melting point.
Which have the high melting pointmetal or metaloids or transitionmetal?
Usually the transition metals. (Tungsten has the highest melting point of all the metals.)
Do solids have a high or low melting point?
That depends on the solid: ice has a very low melting point, lard and butter have low melting points, chocolate has a relatively low melting point, wax has an intermediate melting point, lead has a high melting point, iron has a very high melting point, tungsten has an extremely high melting point.
Is tungsten used in spaceships?
Yes, tungsten is used in spaceships. The hardness and density of tungsten as well as its high melting point make it a good material for rocket nozzles.
Why is tungsten used for lightbulbs?
that is because it has a and a high melting point so it does not melt easily when heated.
