Strongest metal

January 7th, 2008

Strongest metal is Tungsten. Tungsten (W, "Wolfram") comes from a Swedish word, tung sten, meaning "heavy stone".

Tungsten has the highest melting temperature of any metal. Its temperature can be raised to the point where it glows with a white light. Most other metals vaporize before they can produce much light.

Melting Point: 3422 C or 6192 degrees Fahrenheit
