Which metals have the highest melting point?

Answer 1

The metal with the highest melting point is Tungsten (W) at 3410 degrees Celsius (6170 degrees Fahrenheit). However, technically Carbon has a higher melting point, though not under normal atmospheric conditions. This is because it sublimates (turns directly from a solid to a gas) at 6740 degrees Fahrenheit under normal circumstances.

(Carbon also doesn't count because it is not a metal, but a nonmetal).

However, if you are taking consideration of all elements and explore which element has the highest boiling point, then it is Rhenium (Rh), which turns to gaseous form at the temperature of 5592*C (10 097.6*F), followed by Tungsten (W) which boils off at 5540*C (10 004*F).

Answer 2

The metals with the highest melting points are tungsten(W), which melts at 3,695 K

or 3,422 °C, rhenium (Re), which melts at 3,459 K, osmium (Os), which melts at 3,306 K, and tantalum(Ta), which melts at 3,290 K. Out of the elemental metals, Pure Tungsten (W) is highest melting metal.

Only one element has a higher mp. than W has. That is the nonmetal element no. 6, Carbon in the diamond-crystal form: melting point 3,823 K (3,550 °C)

Out of the elemental metals, Pure Tungsten is highest at 3695K (3422°C, 6192°F)

Answer 3

carbon

sal cappelli likes it rawwwwwwwwwwww

actualy the element with the highest melting point is tungsten'carbon is one of the building blocks of life

Answer 4

Tungsten is the element that has the highest melting point.

Answer 5

Tugnsten (chemical symbol 'W', from the old German name 'wolfram') - 3 422 0C.

But carbon (under inert atmosphere) melt at approx. 4 000 0C.

Answer 6

The element with the highest melting point temperature is carbon. The element with the lowest melting point is helium.

Answer 7

Tungsten has the highest melting point.

Answer 8

Tungsten
