11.17 A 90 wt% Ag-10 wt% Cu alloy is heated to a temperature within the ̢ + liquid phase region. If the composition of the liquid phase is 85 wt% Ag, determine: (a) The temperature of the alloy, (b) The composition of the ̢ phase, (c) The mass fractions of both phases. 11.32 For a copper-silver alloy of composition 30 wt% Ag-70 wt% Cu and at 775°C (1048 K), do the following: (a) Determine the mass fractions of α and ̢ phases, (b) Determine the mass fractions of primary α and eutectic microconstituents, (c) Determine the mass fraction of eutectic α.
