What overall material composition would be required to give a material made up of 50wt% mullite and 50wt% alumina at 1400°C?

overall composition ⇒ 87 wt% { AL₂O₃] + 13% wt { SiO₂}

Explanation:

Given that;

from the phase diagram SiO₂ - Al₂O₃

alumina at 1400°C

mullite + alumina ranges from 74 - 100% wt

so for 50% mullite and 50wt% alumina

we have;

50/100 = 100 - x /  100 - 74

0.5 = 100 - x / 26

0.5 × 26 = 100 - x

13 = 100 - x

x = 100 - 13

x = 87 wt% { AL₂O₃]

[ 100% - 87% = 13%] 13% wt SiO₂

So overall composition ⇒ 87 wt% { AL₂O₃] + 13% wt { SiO₂}

can you make it more obvious. i can't see it properly

answer:

yes that is right have a good day
