9-2 9.2 (a) From Figure 9.8, the maximum solubility of Pb in Sn at 100°C corresponds to the position of the β–(α + β) phase boundary at this temperature, or to about 2 wt% Pb. (b) From this same figure, the maximum solubility of Sn in Pb corresponds to the position of the α–(α + β) phase boundary at this temperature, or about 5 wt% Sn.

(b) The composition of this solid phase corresponds to the intersection with the L–(α + L) phase boundary, of a tie line constructed across the α + L phase region at 1320°C--i.e., C = 62 wt% Ni-38 wt% Cu. α (c) Complete solidification of the alloy occurs at the intersection of this same vertical line at 50 wt% Ni with the (α + L)–α phase boundary--i.e., at about 1270°C. (d) The composition of the last liquid phase remaining prior to complete solidification corresponds to the intersection with the L–(α + L) boundary, of the
