Materials Science MCQ’s – Unary Phase Diagrams

1 - Question

Which of the following are examples of unary phase diagrams?
a) Cu-Ni phase diagram
b) Water phase diagram
c) Cu-Pd phase diagram
d) Mg-Db phase diagram
View Answer Answer:b
Explanation: The simplest phase diagram is the water which is a one component system.



2 - Question

What are the external parameters that affect the phase structure?
a) Temperature, Pressure
b) Temperature, Composition
c) Pressure, Composition
d) Temperature, Pressure, Composition
View Answer Answer: d
Explanation: The phase of the system changes accordingly with an increase or decrease in the above parameters.



3 - Question

What is the phase fraction of an alloy when it is one phase system?
a) 0.6
b) 0.8
c) 0.5
d) 1.0
View Answer Answer: d
Explanation: Urinary phase diagram is a phase diagram of a single component over a range of temperature-pressure. It may consist of one or more phases but its chemical composition remains the same.



4 - Question

What will be the phase composition of a phase system?
a) The composition of each phase is same throughout the phase diagram
b) The composition of each phase is different throughout the phase diagram
c) Contains more than one composition in the entire phase diagram
d) Varies from molecule to molecule
View Answer Answer: a
Explanation: The composition of each phase is the same throughout the phase diagram.



5 - Question

Which of the following remains constant in Unary phase diagrams?
a) Pressure
b) Temperature
c) Composition
d) Both pressure and temperature
View Answer Answer: c
Explanation: Since there is only one phase there will be only one substance.



6 - Question

Along the phase boundaries, the phases on either side will be in ______
a) Equal
b) Equilibrium
c) Different
d) Constant
View Answer Answer: b
Explanation: At phase boundary, the phase compositions will be the same.



7 - Question

What is a triple point?
a) All three states are in equilibrium
b) All three states are not in equilibrium
c) All three states don’t exist
d) All three states don’t exist and are not in equilibrium
View Answer Answer: a
Explanation: In triple point, all the states exist and are in equilibrium.



8 - Question

a) 288 K
b) 273.16 K
c) 298 K
d) 277 K
View Answer Answer: b
Explanation: At 273.16 k all the three phases of water will be in equilibrium.



9 - Question

What is pressure at a triple point of water?
a) 5.08×10-3 atm
b) 6.04×10-3 atm
c) 7.04×10-3 atm
d) 6.44×10-3 atm
View Answer Answer: b
Explanation: At 6.04×10-3 atm all the three phases of water will be in equilibrium.
