The metal is TUNGSTEN. Wolfram is the archaic name for tungsten.
The chemical symbol is 'W'.
What else can I help you with?
What is ore of tungsten?
Tungsten is found in wolframite (hence why the Germans called tungsten wolfram).
Where does tungsten come from?
Tungsten is primarily mined from wolframite and scheelite ores, which are found in various regions around the world, including China, Russia, Canada, and Bolivia. Once mined, tungsten is extracted through a series of processing methods, resulting in the pure metal that is used in various industrial applications.
What is the origin of the symbol for the following element tungsten?
The symbol for tungsten is W and it comes from wolfram which is another name for tungsten.Also the ore of tungsten is wolframite with could be the origin of the chemical symbol.
Why does w stand for turgsten?
I think you are talking about the element tungsten. Another name for this element is wolfram, named for being extracted from the mineral wolframite. The word is basically derived from the German phrase "wolf rahm" (wolf cream). It was called such a name as the element consumed tin during tin smelting.
How did tungsten get its name?
Tungsten is represented by the symbol W which came from its earlier name of Wolfram. Tungsten comes from Tung Sten, the Swedish words meaning heavy stone.
Is Tungsten a raw material?
No, it is a metal that has to be smelted out of a mineral called wolframite. It is this wolframite that is the initial raw material.
What is wolframite used for?
Wolframite was mainly used for tank armor in world war 2
What is Gnu's tent goes wild in wolframite?

What minerals are in TVs?
A TV contains quartz, wolframite, chromite, and quartz.
What is tangsten?
If you mean "tungsten" it is a mineral which is obtained from wolframite and scheelite. Mixed with carbon atoms it forms tungsten carbide, which is used in tools and anything requiring a strong, heat resistant metal, such as an oil drill. It is also has the highest melting point of any metal, which is 3422 degrees celcius.
What is wolframite made in?
Wolframite is a mineral composed of iron, manganese, and tungsten. It forms in hydrothermal veins associated with granite and metamorphic rocks. It is commonly found in regions with geological activities that involve the intrusion of granite and the formation of pegmatites.
What is tungsten's mineral group?
none. It is not a mineral and is considered to be an element
Is tungsten a solid?
Yes, tungsten is a metal. This is from wikipedia A steel-gray metal, tungsten is found in several ores, including wolframite and scheelite. It is remarkable for its robust physical properties, especially the fact that it has the highest melting point of all the non-alloyed metals and the second highest of all the elements after carbon.
How many atoms of iron are there in 2.00 moles of wolframite?
Wolframite is a mineral composed primarily of iron (Fe) and tungsten (W), with the general formula (Fe,Mn)WO4. Assuming a typical composition of wolframite contains one iron atom per formula unit, 2.00 moles of wolframite would contain 2.00 moles of iron atoms. Since 1 mole contains approximately (6.022 \times 10^{23}) atoms, 2.00 moles of iron would contain about (1.204 \times 10^{24}) atoms of iron.
Which element has the chemical symbol 'W'?
The W stands for "Wolfram" which is an alternative name for the metallic element Tungsten. One of the chief ores from which Tungsten is extracted is called Wolframite.
