1000 grams of steel containing 1.5 weight percent carbon is heated to complete melting. After equilibrium is achieved, we slowly cool the alloy. Determine the amount of pure iron or pure carbon we need to add to this 1000 gram alloy if we need to have 100% pearlite at 720C upon slow cooling from complete melt.
