I'm a 4th year geology major, been through igneous & metamorphic petrology, minerology, and geochemistry YET this is hands-down the most clear explanation of binary phase diagrams I've found! I wish I found this during mineralogy.. THANK YOU!
I was loking for an explanation in Spanish, but I just found some students in classroon with bad audio, this audio it's better and it's well expalin, so it's easy to understand, eventhought English it's not my first language. Grear video.
Great explanation! Is it possible to conceptually explain why the range at first broadens and then decreases to reach all liquid until you reach the eutectic?
Thank you for the kind words! I hope to pick up the channel again sometime soon. In the meantime, please subscribe and share my existing videos (there are over 100 of them!).
@@ChemSurvival perhaps you could do a video on why there becomes a range of melting points in an impure solid? thank you for this channel, it is an invaluable resource!
At 4:47 u made an error. There shouldn't be a melting point of 1deg it should be a melting point range of 1deg range so .5-1.5degC is a pure melting point range
If a 2degC range means u have a slight impurity in ur pure compound. And anything after 2degC means you have either messed up the melting point process or u have too much impurity
