**Text Transcription for Educational Website:**In one of the most recent silicon industry achievements of 2021, a single transistor takes up a rectangular area on a microchip that measures 10 [nm] by 20 [nm]. The early microchips in the 1970's had rectangular transistors that each measured approximately 20 [μm] by 40 [μm]. How many of the new 2021 transistors could fit inside the same area of a single 1970 transistor?A) 400 B) 4000 C) 40,000 D) 400,000 E) 4,000,000 **Explanation of Concepts:**- **Transistor Size Comparison:** The problem compares the area occupied by transistors from two different eras, 2021 and the 1970s, by using their respective dimensions. - **Measurement Units:** - 2021 transistor dimensions: 10 nanometers (nm) by 20 nanometers (nm). - 1970s transistor dimensions: 20 micrometers (μm) by 40 micrometers (μm).- **Unit Conversion:** To accurately compare the transistor areas, it's essential to convert all measurements to the same units. Note: 1 micrometer (μm) = 1,000 nanometers (nm).- **Area Calculation:** - **2021 transistor area:** \(10 \, \text{nm} \times 20 \, \text{nm} = 200 \, \text{nm}^2\) - **1970s transistor area:** After converting dimensions into nanometers, \( (20,000 \, \text{nm}) \times (40,000 \, \text{nm}) = 800,000,000 \, \text{nm}^2 \)- **Comparison:** - The number of 2021 transistors that fit into a 1970s transistor is calculated by dividing the 1970s transistor area by the 2021 transistor area: \[ \frac{800,000,000 \, \text{nm}^2}{200 \, \text{nm}^2} = 4,000,000 \]Thus, the answer is **E) 4,000,000**.

Your roommate is having trouble understanding why solids form. He asks, Why would atoms bond into solids rather than just floating freely with respect to each other? To help him understand at least one type of bonding in solids, you decide to embark on an energy explanation. You show him a drawing of a primitive cell of a sodium chloride crystal, NaCl, or simple table salt. The drawing is shown in Figure P24.10, where the orange spheres are Na+ ions and the blue spheres are Cl ions. Each ion has a charge of magnitude equal to the elementary charge e.
