Solder which contains 95% Tin, 4% Copper, and 0.5%
Silver has a melting point at 219 °C. The creep melting
point is 0.4.
Find the creep temperature of the solder in degrees
Celsius.

calculations without percentages? Thank you!
Q1.
Imagine you are working for an automotive manufacturer and are selecting plastic materials for various components. Draw the structure of a material you might use for a soft touch plastic. Now draw the structure of a material you might use in the drive train (i.e., an engineering plastic). What characteristics are you engineering into the material?
Q2.
Based on what you know about the calorimetry of melting and crystallization, do you expect melting to be endothermic or exothermic? What about condensation? Can we say anything general about heat flow in the process of forming bonds, covalent or van der Waals?
