2 Information on Tungsten Name: Tungsten Symbol: W Atomic Number: 74 Atomic Mass: 183.84 Melting Point: 3410.0 °C Boiling Point: 5660.0 °C Number of Protons/Electrons: 74 Number of Neutrons: 110 Color: Silver Number of Energy Levels: 6 First Energy Level: 2 Second Energy Level: 8 Third Energy Level: 18 Fourth Energy Level: 32 Fifth Energy Level: 12 Sixth Energy Level: 2

3 Facts on Tungsten  Date of Discovery: 1783 Discoverer: Fausto and Juan Jose de Elhuyar Name Origin: From the Swedish words tungsten (heavy stone) Symbol Origin: From wolfram (its German name) Uses: Used widely in electronics industry  The word tungsten means "heavy stone" in Swedish  The chemical symbol for tungsten is W which stands for Wolfram  The name came from medieval German smelters.  Tungsten is a greyish-white lustrous metal.  Tungsten has the highest melting point and lowest vapor pressure of all metals

4 Pictures Here are some pictures from the internet of Tungsten.

5 Song (tune to Skidamirink) Tungsten is a metal, Its got small amounts of carbon, You may find it shiny, Tons of superlatives! You use it in lighting filaments, Hard metals too. Used in televisions, Microwaves, also. Many people use them, But not many in Japan!
