  1. 3. A phase diagram for carbon and platinum is shown. Assuming the lines shown are linear, we can say the mixture has the following characteristics:

Chapter 10, Problem 3RQ, 3. A phase diagram for carbon and platinum is shown. Assuming the lines shown are linear, we can say

  • Below 1700°C, it is a mixture of solid platinum and graphite.
  • Above 1700°C, there are two possible phases: a liquid (L) phase and a liquid (L) + graphite phase. The endpoints of the division line between these two phases are labeled on the diagram.

Use the workbook provided to determine the phase of a mixture, given the temperature and carbon content.

  1. a. Write the equation to describe the temperature of the dividing line between the liquid (L) region and the liquid (L) 1 graphite region in column C. Reference the carbon content found in column B as needed. Add any absolute reference cells you feel are needed to complete this calculation.
  2. b. Write the conditional statement to determine the phase in column D. For simplicity, call the phases Pt + G, L, and L + G. For points on the line, YOU can decide which phase they are included in.

i need the answer quickly
GEOLOGY (Phase Diagram). Given a certain substance (in red dot), answer the following questions and show your solution by drawing the necessary lines in the graph.  a. What is the composition of the melt at T=1650C? b. What is the composition of the melt at T=1300C (if the temperature is at 1300C)? c. What conditions are needed in order for Anorthite (An), Diopside (Di) and liquid to exist in the system?
please show work and formulas so that i may learn the process correctly. if you use a table please mention which table was used. thank you so much. 2. Fill in the blank cells of this table: T( C) P(kPa) u(kJ/kg) Phase description 175 2524.5 325 4000 325 Saturated liquid
