Class- 1. (Multiple choice question) [1]
1 Following is wrong about a phase diagram.
(a) It gives information on transformation rates.
(b) Relative amount of different phases can be found CO 2 [R]
under given equilibrium conditions. (c) It indicates the
temperature at which different phases start to melt. (d)
Solid solubility limits are depicted by it.
2. Draw the phase diagram where two components are [2] CO 2 [U]
completely soluble in both liquid and solid state with the
Given here are the solidus and liquidus temperatures
for the copper–gold system. Construct the phase diagram
for this system and label each region.

Class- 3. The boundary line between (alpha) and (alpha+beta) [1]
2 regions must be part of _________. CO 2 [U]
(a) Solvus (b) Solidus (c) Liquidus (d) Tie-line
4. Consider 1.0 kg of austenite containing 1.15 wt% C, [2]
cooled to below 727° C.(a) What is the proeutectoid
phase? (b) How many kilograms each of total ferrite and
CO 2 [Ap]
cementite form?(c) How many kilograms each of pearlite
and the proeutectoid phase form?(d) Schematically sketch
and label the resulting microstructure.
Class- 5. Draw Fe-Fe3C phase diagram and explain the phase [1]
3 CO 2 [U]
transformation for 0.5% C and 0.8% Carbon steel.
6. For the following data is for Pb-Sn alloy system : (Lead- [3]
Tin Solder) Melting point of lead (Pb) - 327ºCMelting
point of Tin (Sn) - 232ºC .Eutectic alloy is formed at 183ºC
with 62% Sn –38% Pb Maximum solid solubility of tin in
lead at 183ºC –19% Maximum solid solubility of lead in
tin at 183ºC –3%.Maximum solubility of tin and lead at
room temperature is negligible. 1.Draw the phase CO 2 [An]
diagram with the help of above data and label all the
points, lines and regions on it. 2.For 70%Pb – 30%Sn alloy
composition, determine the amounts of proeutectic and
eutectic constituents at room temperature.
