Session #34: Homework Problems: Problem #1

This document contains 4 homework problems related to phase diagrams and binary systems. Problem 1 involves constructing a phase diagram for the Cu-Ni system from experimental data. Problem 2 asks to sketch phase diagrams for different types of binary systems. Problem 3 refers to the Cs-K phase diagram and asks questions about phase identification and composition. Problem 4 does similarly for the NaCl-H2O system.

Session #34: Homework Problems

Problem #1 For the binary system Cu-Ni the following data are available from cooling experiments:
composition of solid first formed on cooling (atomic % Ni)

T(C)

melt composition (atomic % Ni)

1100 1180 1260 1340 1410

3 20 40 60 80

10 37 57 73 87

(a) From these data and information provided in the Periodic Table, construct the phase diagram (T vs c). (b) At each of the following (T,c) coordinates, i.e., combinations of temperature and composition, what are the phases present and what are their respective compositions?

T( C)

composition (atomic % Ni)

1120 1200 1300

15 55 60

Problem #2 Draw schematic phase diagrams for binary systems with (a) complete liquid and solid solubility, (b) complete liquid but zero solid solubility, and (c) complete liquid and limited solid solubility. (In your sketches label phase fields and give characteristic temperatures.) Problem #3 The Cs-K phase diagram is given on the next page. Refer to it in answering the following questions.

(a) For a sample of composition 20 at. % Cs and 80 wt. % K held at 10C, determine (i) the composition of the solid phase present at equilibrium (ii) the composition of the liquid phase present at equilibrium (iii) the relative amounts of solid and liquid phases present at equilibrium (b) For a sample of composition 50 at % Cs and 50 at % K held at -37.5C, (i) what phases are present at equilibrium? (ii) what is the composition of each phase?

Problem #4 (a) At each of the following coordinates on the binary phase diagram of NaCl H2O (see next page) at 1 atmosphere pressure, (i) identify the stable phases, (ii) give their compositions, and (iii) calculate their relative proportions: (1) 10% NaCl, 0oC (2) 10% NaCl, -10oC (3) 10% NaCl, -25oC

(b) For a solution of 23.3% NaCl in H2O at 21C, (i) identify the stable phases present, and (ii) give the composition of each phase
