Answer:

a. The very first liquid process, when heated from 1250 degree Celsius, is expected to form at the temperature by which the vertical line crosses the phase boundary (a -(a + L)) which is about 1310 degree Celsius.

b. The structure of that first liquid is identified by the intersection with ((a+ L)-L) phase boundary; 47wt %of Ni is of a tie line formed across the (a+ L) phase area at 1310 degrees.

c. To find the alloy's full melting, it is determined that the intersection of the same vertical line at 60 wt percent Ni with (a -(a+L)) phase boundary is around 1350 degrees.

c. The structure of the last remaining solid before full melting correlates to the intersection with the phase boundary (a -(a + L), of the tie line built at 1350 degrees across the (a + L) phase area, being 72wt % of Ni.

  1. The temperature at which the first liquid phase form is approximately equal to 1345°C.
  2. The composition of this liquid phase is equal to 59 wt% Ni.
  3. The complete melting of the alloy occur at a temperature of approximately 1345°C.
  4. The composition of the last solid remaining prior to complete melting is approximately equal to 79 wt% Ni.

What is temperature?

Temperature can be defined as a measure of the degree of hotness or coldness of a physical body (object). Also, it is measured by using a thermometer and its units are Celsius (°C), Kelvin (K) and Fahrenheit (°F).

Based on the phase diagram (graph) of the temperature and composition of copper-nickel alloy, we can deduce the following points:

  • The temperature at which the first liquid phase form is approximately equal to 1345°C, which is where the vertical line and the [tex]\alpha -(\alpha + L)[/tex] phase boundary intersects.
  • The composition of this liquid phase is equal to 59 wt% Nickel, which is where the [tex]\alpha + L[/tex] phase region and the [tex](\alpha + L)-L[/tex] phase boundary intersects.
  • The complete melting of the alloy occur at a temperature of approximately 1345°C, which is where the vertical line and the [tex](\alpha + L)-L[/tex] phase boundary intersects.
  • The composition of the last solid remaining prior to complete melting is approximately equal to 79 wt% Nickel.
