Serial quasi-compact \(T_{1}\)-spaces are exactly the spaces that arise as maximal spectra of Bézout domains. The closed unit interval is serial. It is well-known that every compact space is a subspace of a Tychonoff cube. But it is not known if each Tychonoff space is serial. If it is serial then each compact space is serial too. If not , then this suggests the question of determination of the smallest cardinal \(k\) for which the Tychonoff cube is not serial. This paper should be considered as a first step to classify the serial spaces since the author answered this question partially. In Theorem 1, he proves that the compact unit square \([0, 1]^2\) is serial. Moreover, in Theorem 2, he shows that any product \([0, 1]^I\) with \(\mid I \mid > 2 ^{ \aleph_{1}}\) is not serial.
