The Phase Diagram
• Phase diagram: shows the regions of pressure and temperature at which its various phases are thermodynamically stable.
• Phase boundary: a boundary between regions, shows the values of P and T at which two phases coexist in equilibrium.
The Gibbs Phase Rule
• The phase rule isf = c – p + 2
Wheref = degrees of freedomc = number of componentsp = number of phases
at equilibrium for a system of any composition.
The Gibbs Phase Rule
• Degree of freedom (f): It is the number of external variables that can be changed independently without disturbing the number of phases in equilibrium. These are pressure, temperature and composition.
• Component: a chemically independent constituent of a system
• number of components (c): the minimum number of independent species necessary to define the composition of all the phase present in the system
• Phase: a state of matter that is uniform throughout in chemical composition and physical state.
The Phase Rule
• Number of phase (p): – Gas or gaseous mixture – single phase– Liquid – one, two and three phases• two totally miscible liquids – single phase• a slurry of ice and water – two phases
– Solid• a crystal is a single phase• an alloy of two metals – two phases
(immiscible)• one phase (miscible)

The Phase Rule
(a) (b)
The difference between (a) a single-phase solution, in which the composition is uniform on a microscopic scale, and (b) a dispersion containing two phases, in which regions of one component are embedded in a matrix of a second component.

Simple Example

f= 1- p+ 2= 3- p, (C= 1)
f ≥0, p ≥1, 3≥p≥1
p= 1, f= 2
p= 2, f= 1
p= 3, f= 0
One-component phase equilibrium
Hence, for a one-component system (pure water)

Phase Rule in Metallurgical Systems
• But in case of metallurgical systems, the pressure is kept constant.
• Hence the Phase Rule gets modified toF = C – P + 1
