Tungsten (VI) fluoride, also known as tungsten hexafluoride, is an inorganic compound with the formula W F 6. It is a toxic, corrosive, colorless gas, with a density of about 13 kg/m 3 (22 lb/cu yd) (roughly 11 times heavier than air). [2] [3] [4] It is the only known gaseous transition metal (or d-block) compound and the densest known gas ...
Tungsten (VI) oxide, also known as tungsten trioxide is a chemical compound of oxygen and the transition metal tungsten, with formula WO 3. The compound is also called tungstic anhydride, reflecting its relation to tungstic acid H2WO4. It is a light yellow crystalline solid. [1]
Tungsten has several oxidation states, and therefore oxides: Tungsten (III) oxide. Tungsten (IV) oxide, also known as tungsten dioxide. Tungsten (VI) oxide, also known as tungsten trioxide. Tungsten pentoxide. Category: Set index articles on chemistry.
The first Tungsten, the Tungsten T, introduced in November 2002 and known during development as the M550, was the first model to use Palm OS 5. The Tungsten T was designed by Palm engineers based in Arlington Heights, Illinois. It had: 16 megabytes of memory, Texas Instruments OMAP (ARM) 144 MHz processor, built-in microphone for voice memos,
Tungsten, kent as wolfram an aa, is a chemical element wi the chemical seembol W an atomic nummer 74. The wird tungsten comes frae the Swadish leid tung sten directly translatable tae hivy stane, [5] tho the name is volfram in Swadish fur tae distinguish it frae Scheelite, at in Swadish is alternatively named tungsten .
Kinetic bombardment. A kinetic bombardment or a kinetic orbital strike is the hypothetical act of attacking a planetary surface with an inert kinetic projectile from orbit ( orbital bombardment ), where the destructive power comes from the kinetic energy of the projectile impacting at very high speeds. The concept originated during the Cold War .
Uncle Tungsten: Memories of a Chemical Boyhood is a memoir by Oliver Sacks about his childhood published in 2001. The book is named after Sacks's Uncle Dave, whom Oliver nicknamed Uncle Tungsten because he was secretary of a business named Tungstalite, [1] which made incandescent lightbulbs with a tungsten filament .
