Question: ( b ) Given the following information, construct the hypothetical phase diagram on Fig. 3 for metals A and B between room temperature ( 2

(b) Given the following information, construct the hypothetical phase diagram on Fig. 3 for metals A and B
between room temperature (20C) and 700C, given the following information and label the axes and the
phases present.
The melting temperature of metal A is 550C.
The maximum solubility of B in A is 8wt%B, which occurs at 420C-
The solubility of B in A at room temperature is 0 wt %.
One eutectic occurs at 420C and 18wt%B-82wt%A.
A second eutectic occurs at 475C and 60 wt% B-40 wt% A.
The intermetallic compound AB exists at a composition of 30wt%B-70wt%, and melts directly to
liquid at 525C.
The melting temperature of metal B is 600C.
The maximum solubility of A in B is 13 wt %, which occurs at 475C.
, The solubility of A in B at room temperature is 3wt%A.
 (b) Given the following information, construct the hypothetical phase diagram on
