Because the melting point for tungsten is around 3400 °C (~6200 °F), which is far greater than the actual temperature a bulb actually reaches. This also makes tungsten the metal with the highest melting point.

Answer:
The answer is:
Explanation:
As the melting point for tungsten is high around 3400 °C , which is far greater than the actual temperature a bulb actually reaches.
Tungsten is used for making filament of an electric bulb due to the following reasons:
⦿Being an alloy it has a very high melting point
.
⦿It has very high resistivity so it does not burn easily at room temperature.
⦿The lamp glows at high temperatures.
