Consider the phase diagram below. The three points A, B, and C are at concentrations of 26.4, 31.3, and 34 wt% Ni respectively. The ends of the tie line are at C1 = 25% wt% Ni and C2 = 35 wt% Ni. What are the weight fractions of the alpha phase at A and the L phase at B, as well as the alpha phase/L phase ratio at C? T(°C) 1300 L (liquid) 1200 20 ABC L + a C1 S liquidus L + a solidus a (solid) 50 wt% Ni a. Walpha=0.21; WL=0.33; Walpha/WL = 13.17 b. Walpha=0.09; WL=0.32; Walpha/WL = 15.00 c. Walpha=0.07; WL=0.46; Walpha/WL = 11.17 Ⓒd. Walpha=0.14; WL-0.37; Walpha/WL = 9.00

A substance with fixed chemical composition throughout is called a pure substance like water, air, and nitrogen. A pure substance does not have to be a single element or compound. A mixture of two or more phases of a pure substance is also a pure substan…
