A hypothetical A-B alloy of composition 53 wt% B-47 wt% A at some temperature is found to consist of mass fractions of 0.5 for both and phases. If the composition of the phase is 92 wt% B-8 wt% A, what is the composition of the phase

Respuesta :

Answer:

the composition of the ∝ phase C∝ = 14  or [ 14 wt% B-86 wt% A ]

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Co = 53 or [ 53 wt% B-47 wt% A ]

W∝ = 0.5 = Wβ

Cβ = 92 or [ 92 wt% B-8 wt% A ]

Now, lets set up the Lever rule for W∝ as follows;

W∝ = [ Cβ - Co ] / [ Cβ - C∝ ]

so we substitute our given values into the expression;

0.5 = [ 92 - 53 ] / [ 92 - C∝ ]

0.5 = 39 /  [ 92 - C∝ ]

0.5[ 92 - C∝ ] = 39

46 - 0.5C∝  = 39

0.5C∝ = 46 - 39

0.5C∝ = 7

C∝ = 7 / 0.5

C∝ = 14  or [ 14 wt% B-86 wt% A ]

Therefore, the composition of the ∝ phase C∝ = 14  or [ 14 wt% B-86 wt% A ]
