Sketch the microstructure of a Mg-Pb alloy with 50 wt% Pb that was slowly cooled from 700°C.

Solutions

Expert Solution

Pb lattice is arranged in FCC (Face Centered Cubic unit cell) and Mg lattice in HCP ( Hexagonal Closed Packed unit cell).

Pb crystal lattice is soft in nature so that it can be easily modified according to choice at different temperature and concentration with hard Mg crystal lattice to make an alloy of different concentration. At 700°C because of the high kinetic energy of Pb atoms constituents particle will be in the high vibronic state and while cooling down the kinetic energy will slowly decrease and it will attain its crystal structure with proper orientation of constituent particles of Pb and Mg in the alloy.

100 kg/hr of aqueous mixture containing 74 %wt of sucrose is cooled from 60 ˚C to 20 ˚C. Due to the decrease in temperature, some of the sugar precipitates out from the mixture as crystals and are subsequently removed via a separator unit.  In the separation of the crystals, for every 1 kg of crystals removed, 0.05 kg of the aqueous mixture will be removed together with the crystals.  Calculate the mass flow rate of the remaining saturated aqueous solution (in kg/hr)....
