Why do you think silicon is used in electronic components?

A cubic sample weighing 0.5524 g is composed of Titanium with a 2,0 at% single element impurity. Its crystal structure is BCC (APF = 0.68, n 2, CN = 8), and when viewed under a microscope, it can be seen that the sample contains 15,000,000 unit cells along any given edge of the cube. What element is the impurity? %3D n 3=
