Chapter 4, Problem 1RQ

What kind of questions can be answered by equilibrium phase diagrams?

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

The type of solutions developed using the equilibrium phase diagram.

Explanation of Solution

Equilibrium phase diagram is a graphical representation of any material different phase present at different temperatures and compositions. It describes the different phases like solid, liquid and gaseous phases.

Equilibrium phase diagram can be helpful in the following ways:

  1. It helps in determining the property of any material.
  2. It describes the composition of the material.
  3. Pressure and temperature can be obtained using the phase diagram.
  4. It describes the various phases of the based-on temperature and pressure.
  5. It helps in determining the solubility of the material.
  6. It describes the state where various material starts melting.
