Factors affecting network performance Not all networks are the same. As data is broken into component parts (often known frames, packets, or segments) for transmission, several factors can affect their delivery.
It is sometimes strange to see what elements combine to make a compound. Sodium, a soft metal which fizzes violently when put into water, and chlorine, a poisonous gas, make sodium chloride (NaCl), otherwise known as common salt! The elements are usually arranged in the Periodic Table.
Palladium is a soft silver-white metal that resembles platinum. It is the least dense and has the lowest melting point of the platinum group metals. It is soft and ductile when annealed and greatly increases its strength and hardness when it is cold-worked.
