Explain why, tungsten is used for making the filaments of electric bulbs.
Tungsten do not oxidize at high temperature. Can it be the reason for tungsten used almost exclusively for filament of electric lamps?
Tungsten is used almost exclusively for filament of incandescent lamps because tungsten has a high melting point (3380∘C) and becomes incandescent (i.e., emits light at a high temperature) at 2400 K.
State true or false. Tungsten is used almost exclusively for filament of incandescent lamps because tungsten has a high melting point (3380∘C) and becomes incandescent (i.e., emits light at a high temperature) at 2400K.
