Question

A lead-tin (Pb-Sn) alloy of composition 30 wt % Sn and 70 wt % Pb is slowly heated from a temperature of 140 OC. Refer to the phase diagram provided in Figure 1 and answer the following.       

(i)    At what temperature does the first liquid phase form?

(ii)  What is the composition of this liquid phase?           

(iii)   At what temperature does complete melting of the alloy occur?

(iv)  What is the composition of the last solid remaining prior to complete melting?
