Question#1
A binary eutectic phase diagram of Pb-Sn is given below. Investigate using the diagram to
answer the following questions.
i. What is the composition of phases and temperature at point 1?
ii. What does the alloy consist of at 250 0C and how many phases present at the
constitution point for a 30% Pb– 70 % Sn alloy?
iii. What does the alloy consist of at 250 0C and how many phases present at the
constitution point for a 70% Pb– 30 % Sn alloy?
iv. Describe what happens as the alloy corresponding initially to the constitution point 1
is cooled to room temperature. At which temperatures do changes in the number or
type of phases occur? What phases are present at point 2? What phases are present at
point 3?
v. Describe similarly what happens when the alloy corresponding to the constitution
point 4 is cooled to room temperature.
