    The document discusses several phase diagrams: 1) The copper-zinc phase diagram shows terminal and intermediate solid solutions, with commercial brasses being copper-rich alloys of 70% copper and 30% zinc such as cartridge brass. 2) The magnesium-lead phase diagram is similar to two simple eutectic diagrams joined together, with extensive solubility of lead in magnesium and an intermetallic compound of 19% magnesium and 81% lead rather than a solid solution. 3) Eutectic and peritectic reactions are described, with a eutectic transformation being an invariant reaction occurring at the eutectic point and a peritectic reaction represented by point P.
