Question: ( 1 0 points ) A hypothetical equilibrium phase diagram between two elements A and B shows the following features: ( i ) Element A

(10 points) A hypothetical equilibrium phase diagram between two elements A and B shows the following features:
(i) Element A has three solid allotropic forms with transformation temperatures of 800C and 1,150C and melts at 1,980C. These form solid solutions ,, and containing element B, being the low-temperature one.
(ii) An intermediate compound, (A2B3) form melts at 1,230C. It has a limited solid solution for element A , forming solid solution and no solid solubility for element B .
(iii) Element B melts at 800C and has negligible solid solubility for A.
(iv) Eutectic reactions: (a) at 1000C,L(55wt.%B)(25wt.%B)+(60wt.%B), and (b) at 650C,L(90wt.%B)(A2B3)+B.
(v) Peritectic reaction at .
(vi) Eutectoid reaction at 600C:(12wt.%B)(5wt.%B)+(65wt.%B).
(vii) Peritectoid reaction at 300C:(3wt.%B)+(69wt%B.)(40wt.%B).
(viii) At 0C the solubilities of B in A and A in A2B3 are negligible and the phase extends from 35wt.% to 45wt.
Sketch the equilibrium phase diagram. Label all of the phase fields. Assume that all phase boundaries are straight lines.
