Solid Solution. ❑When two metals are mixed together they form an alloy if one metal is soluble in the other one in solid state. Therefore, an alloy is a solid solution of two or more metals. ❑Primarily there are two types of solid solutions -. read more
Therefore,an alloy is a solid solution of two or more metals Primarily there are two types of solid solutions - Substitutional – Solute atoms occupy the regular latticesites of the parent metal (solvent). read more
If you wish to know the precise definition you can find it here: mixed crystal (solid solution) and here: TLP Library Solid Solutions. Almost half of the common alloys are intermetallic compounds and not solid solutions. Now to some examples of a solid solutions: most of the construction steel, brass, most amalgams. read more
Solutions are also present in the solid phase - brass is a solid solution that is a mixture of copper and zinc. In the next section, we'll discuss what the different types of solutions are in different phases. Types of Solutions - Solid, Liquid, and Gas. Solutions exist in solid, liquid, and gas phases with different combinations. read more
