W was the 19th letter and was pronounced "wah"; there was an equivalent letter in the old Baybayin script of the Philippines. In the International Phonetic Alphabet, is used for the voiced labial-velar approximant. W is the symbol for the chemical element tungsten, after its German (and alternative English) name, "Wolfram". It is also the SI symbol for the watt, the standard unit of power. Double-u, whose name reflects stages in the letter's evolution when it was considered two of the same letter, a double U, is the only modern English letter whose name has more than one syllable. It is
Melting-point depression in Figure 1, and the shape of the curve is in general agreement with those obtained through experiment. Equation 2 gives the general relation between the melting point of a metal nanoparticle and its diameter. However, recent work indicates the melting point of semiconductor and covalently bonded nanoparticles may have a different dependence on particle size. The covalent character of the bonds changes the melting physics of these materials. Researchers have demonstrated that Equation 3 more accurately models melting point depression in covalently bonded materials. formula_3 Where: T=Bulk Melting temperature Equation 3 indicates that melting point depression is less pronounced
