(a)
Interpretation:
The regions of the given phase diagram of silver/tin has to be labeled. The series of changes that will occur when liquids of compositions a and b ae cooled to
Concept Introduction:
A
Phase diagram is a graphical representation of all the equilibrium phase as a function of temperature, pressure and composition.
A eutectic mixture is a mixture of two or more phases at a composition that has the lowest melting point and it is where the phases simultaneously crystallize from molten solution.
(b)
Interpretation:
The cooling curves for the composition a and b has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Cooling curve:
A cooling curve is graph that represents the change of phases of matter, like from a gas to a solid or a liquid to a solid. It is a plot of temperatures of a sample as a function of time.
(c)
Interpretation:
The solubility of silver in tin at
Concept Introduction:
A state of matter that is uniform throughout in chemical composition and physical state is known as phase.
