1. (a) Describe the two main uses of phase diagrams [2 marks] (b) Sketch the Lead-Tin phase diagram and label and define the ‘liquidus', 'solidus' and 'eutectic'. Determine the percentage of tin in the alloy when the specimen is at 250°C with 30% liquid and remainder being at solid phase. [14 marks] (c) Explain how the Lead-Tin phase diagram can be used to identify alloy compositions having the best properties for use as a solder in electronics. [4 marks] Total marks: 20
