and two-phase regions (reference state, pure liquid Pd and Pb). The integral molar excess Gibbs energy of formation of the liquid alloyhas been described by the following relation:

The best description of this excess function was obtained with the following values:

Assuming that all of the intermediate phases are stoichiometric, the excess functions of formation have been calculated. These data are asfollows:
