Metals are used in many products because of the characteristic properties that most metals share. Which properties of the metal tungsten make it useful in the thin, glowing filaments of light bulbs? Tungsten is electrically conductive, ductile, and opaque. Tungsten is ductile, is malleable, and has a high luster. Tungsten is ductile, has a high melting point, and is electrically conductive. Tungsten has a high luster, has a high melting point, and is silver in color.Metals are used in many products because of the characteristic properties that most metals share.

The most important characteristics that are exhibited by metals are-

1- Metals are ductile

2-Most metals are conductive in nature.

3-Most metals are malleable.

4- Metals have strong inter molecular force of attraction between the.

5-Metals have luster.

6-Metals are sonorous.

Here we are given Tungsten filament.

Tungsten is a metal.So it must be conductive and as well as ductile in nature.

The electric filament that we are using in our electric bulb glows due to the heating effect of current.Hence the chosen substances for glowing electric bulb must have high melting point.

The melting point of tungsten is 1650 degree celsius which is very high.That's why it is used in electric bulb.

Hence the correct answer to the question is the third one i.e Tungsten is ductile,has a high melting point, and is electrically conductive.
