Answers from our experts for your tough
homework questions

Consider the hypothetical eutectic phase diagram for metals A and B, which is similar to that for the lead- Enter question
tin system, (shown in the gure below.) Assume that (1) α and β phases exist at the A and B extremities of
the phase diagram, respectively; (2) the eutectic composition is 36 wt% A-64 wt% B; and (3) the
composition of the α phase at the eutectic temperature is 88 wt% A-12 wt% B. Determine the composition
of an alloy that will yield primary β and total β mass fractions of 0.370 and 0.756, respectively.

Calculate the mass fraction of primary constituents.

Here, is the composition of eutectic phase, is the overall alloy composition, and is the

composition for the solution phase, and is the mass fraction for primary phase.

Substitute 64 wt% B for , and 0.367 for the value .

…… (1)

Calculate the mass fraction of total constituents.

 Here, is the composition of phase, is the overall alloy composition, and is the composition

for the solution phase, and is the mass fraction for total phase.

Substitute 12 wt% B for , and 0.768 for the value .

…… (2)

Solve equations (1) and (2), for , .

Therefore, the overall composition , for the hypothetical eutectic phase is .

hope you understood.
