Interpretation:
The term "binary phase diagram" is to be defined and the information learned from it is to be indicated. Also, the term "equilibrium phase diagram" is to be defined.
Concept Introduction:
Phase diagrams are the geometrical representation of the conditions such as temperature, pressure, composition, etc. of a system at which different phases present in the system exists and are in
These phase diagrams contain phase boundaries which are lines that mark the conditions under which multiple phases can coexist at the equilibrium. Along these lines, the transition of phase occurs.
The point where these phase boundaries intersect are the triple points. At these points, three different phases can exist simultaneously.
