Is money is scarce resources?

It depends on the resource in question, now doesn't it? If you're working with something made out of sand--either glass or microchips--money's more scarce than resources. I have a whole backyard made out of sand. If I had a whole backyard made out of money...well, I wouldn't be living in THIS house, for one thing!

What two technologies are used to manufacturer microchips?

Microchips are generally manufactured using photo-lithography to control the placement of semiconductors. The semiconductors are made by doping the metal to alter its electrical properties


What substance is in microchips?

Microchips are made of silicon, a semiconductor material that can efficiently conduct electricity. Silicon is processed and arranged into intricate patterns to create the electronic circuits that form the basis of microchips. Other elements, such as germanium and gallium, may also be used in microchip manufacturing to augment the properties of silicon.
