ALL MOLECULAR GRAPHICS: metals: tungsten: W: atomic arrangement (crystal structure)
(above) tungsten atoms arranged in a body centred cubic patternTungsten (or Wolfram): this graphic shows metal atoms arranged in a body centred cubic arrangement. Tungsten is very hard and has an extremely high melting point (carbon is higher). It can be alloyed with iron to form a steel and combined with carbon to make tungsten carbide.Image is 500 pixels across, the originals are 4096 pixels across. |
