Alloys are Allies
Good Evening Friends,
We always see that we can be strong when we have some allies, there is always a mutual benefit. This strategy is applicable even for Metals.
An alloy is a combined mixture of metal and another element. How does this friendship with 2 gangs normally be? It works with some treaty/ rules or conditions. If this is applicable on life, why not in Metals? When there is a deal with a weapon, then even their constituents also sign treaty within themselves for their betterment. As we know that world Loves Peace. Even Metals Love to be Peaceful, If they are stubborn like us, then they are bound to be Piece FULL.. This applies even in Human Lives.
So, Today I would Like to tell you how these metallic body sign treaty? What are their basis? In our story of compromising a fight between 2 gangs, we see that, some elderly person taking up responsibility. Here, In case Metals,
Its HUME- ROTHERY Rules.
1) Atomic Size Factor (the 15%), i.e., extensive solid solution (alloy) occurs only if the relative difference between the atomic diameters (radii) of the two species is less than 15%.
This Factor Reminds me the locality.. Even We tend to sign a treaty with a border range. May be we must learn a bit more from metal for being generous up to 15 %.
2) Crystal Structure Rule: The crystal structures of the two elements must be identical.
This Factor also applies, when we see that there is some resonance on mindsets of allies, They become ally when their ideologies are identical.
3) Valency Rule: The solute and solvent atoms should typically have the same valence in order to achieve maximum solubility
This is what even we see, We neither go to some one who is strong/ some one who is weak, that is because when we join hands with strong gang, we normally end up in lot of compromises,(Inferior Complex) when we try to support a weak gang, we will end up in same place (Superior Complex) which takes us No Where In Expansion.
4) The Electronegativity Rule:The solute and the solvent should lie relatively close in the electrochemical series.
Even this rule goes in hand with the above statement, where combining with two groups with different ideologies will not make them as a good allies. Similarly, They form a inter-metallic compound rather than a alloy.
These Rules are In Benefit Formation a good alloy like Steel, Brass, Bronze.
Pure Metals have no use, Similarly, One Man Army can't work for everyone. There must be some force supporting, they are ultimately allies/ Friends. I call allies as friends, as we are all put up in a war-zone, where we need to fight our enemies for our betterment. Our Competitors are within ourselves, Every day, Every Second we win a battle and we lose a battle. Either Win/Loss, The result of battle is always for our enrichment. Similarly, in an alloy formation, One has to come down while other has to climb up.. There is a Win-Lose situation, but the result here is they form a very useful material.
When metals have such characters where they are not egoistic, why not we ??
Its a lesson which I learn when ever I see these Alloys.
They Know their Limits, They behave well with their allies.
Hopefully, I think you people agree that even we are governed by Hume-Rothery Rules.
Good Night

Allies are Alloys in terms of Metals
Its HUME- ROTHERY Rules.
1) Atomic Size Factor (the 15%), i.e., extensive solid solution (alloy) occurs only if the relative difference between the atomic diameters (radii) of the two species is less than 15%.

This Phase diagram speaks, How good they are mutually benefited.
Binary-Isomorphous Curve is a very good Example for Best Allies.
Ex: Au-Ag, Nb- Ta,- Ag- Pd, Cu-Ni, Bi-Sb,Nb-W and so on.
This is a typical Iron- Carbide diagram,
Here It has more rules, restrictions.
They have lot of differences and conditions but they hold up together as a good product with less compromises.
Few more examples are Pb-Sn, Au-Sn, Au-Al, Cu-Al, Cu-Zn and so on.
These Rules are In Benefit Formation a good alloy like Steel, Brass, Bronze.
