Answer :

Answer:

Vgr = 0.122 = 12.2 vol %

Explanation:

Density of ferrite = 7.9 g/cm^3

Density of graphite = 2.3 g/cm^3

compute the volume percent of graphite

for a 3.9 wt% cast Iron

W∝ =  (100 - 3.9) / ( 100 -0 ) = 0.961

Wgr = ( 3.9 - 0 ) / ( 100 - 0 ) = 0.039

Next convert the weight fraction to volume fraction using the equation attached below

Vgr = 0.122 = 12.2 vol %
