For some systems, discrete intermediate compounds rather than solid solutions may be found on the phase diagram, and these compounds have distinct chemical formulas; for metal–metal systems, they are called intermetallic compounds. e.g. Mg2Pb has 33 at% Pb
For binary isomorphous system like copper-nickel, if we get 33 at% Ni, can we say it is Cu2Ni? How to distinguish intermetallics from other solid solution with same ratio?
