Hello! I had ordered my Macbook Air 2020 model and recently got to know that the M1 chip wasn't planted into this. I need a variety of apps which is only compatible with the M1 chip. Can the M1 chip be planted onto my Macbook or can any other device like Mac mini could be used to acquire its benefits?

Inserting an M1 Chip:
No. It cannot be placed in there. The LogicBoard and all pieces are built together to operate as one device. In fact, it likely already is in there. See here: MacBook Air (M1, 2020) - Technical Specifications - Apple Support
Verifying the Device's Processor:
On the Mac, Itself:
Then...
Enter it on Apple’s Site: Check Apple Warranty
Enter the Serial Number, and see what pops up for the processor. See if it seen as a MacBook Air with M1.

Apple Silicon is not a single chip, but rather an entire system-on-a-chip (SoC) which includes the CPU, GPU, Neural Engine, RAM, SSD, etc.
You can’t build your own from spare parts like a Windows PC.
That’s not how it works! 👈🏼
If you need an M1 MacBook Air, you need to buy an M1 MacBook Air. The MacBook Air series has not had any user replaceable parts for years and have never had a processor that you could upgrade.
Which non Apple apps require an M1 chip?
How can I insert M1 chip into my Mac?
