Period 5 element other metal is not easily oxidized in air and is used to coat other metals to prevent corrosion. The firstalloy, used in large scale since 3000 BC, was bronze, an alloy of tin and copper. After 600 BC pure metallic tin was produced. Pewter, which is an alloy of 85–90% tin with the remainder commonly consisting of copper, antimony and lead, was used for tableware from the Bronze Age until the 20th century. In modern times tin is used in many alloys, most notably tin/lead soft solders, typically containing 60% or more of tin. Another large application for tin is
C-element slow environment. Note that the definition of C-element can be easily generalized for multiple-valued logic or even for continuous signals: For example, the truth table for a balanced ternary C-element with two inputs is Depending on the requirements to the switching speed and power consumption, the C-element can be realized as a coarse- or fine-grain circuit. Also, one should distinguish between single-output and differential realizations of C-element. Differential realization is possible using only NANDs (only NORs). A single-output realization is workable if and only if: There is a number of different single-output circuits of C-element built on logic gates. In
