What metal element is in period 6 group 6?

This element is wolfram (chemical symbol W).The atomic number of wolfram is 74; the atomic weight is 183,8 g.Wolfram is the metal with the highest melting point: 3 422 oC.


What Element that was originally called wolfram?

It is Tungsten metal which has highest Melting point among metals and therefore used in electric bulbs.


Is there a pure metal which has melting point higher than tungsten?

No; the melting point of wolfram (W) is the highest known - 3 422 0C.


What is the other name of tungsten?

Tungsten is also known as wolfram.


Is there any metal that can sustain the temperature more than 4000 deg Celsius?

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_elements_by_melting_point, apparently not: The highest melting point is carbon (graphite) at 3675 degrees celsius; the highst melting point for a metal is 3422 degrees celsius for tungsten (wolfram).According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_elements_by_melting_point, apparently not: The highest melting point is carbon (graphite) at 3675 degrees celsius; the highst melting point for a metal is 3422 degrees celsius for tungsten (wolfram).According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_elements_by_melting_point, apparently not: The highest melting point is carbon (graphite) at 3675 degrees celsius; the highst melting point for a metal is 3422 degrees celsius for tungsten (wolfram).According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_elements_by_melting_point, apparently not: The highest melting point is carbon (graphite) at 3675 degrees celsius; the highst melting point for a metal is 3422 degrees celsius for tungsten (wolfram).
