If aerogel is 7 time lighter than air, why isn't it floating?
User avatar #230 to #12 - Mickeyboi (08/21/2013) [-]
Thats graphene aerogel, discovered earlier this year, its 7 times less dense than regular aerogel. It's actually lighter than helium. Its very porous and its recorded weight doesn't take into account the all the regular air that fills its pores, so it won't float, it'd behave more like a blown soap bubble.

#455 to #230 - 2scared2login (08/21/2013) [-]
so the material isn't actually lighter, but it has a structure that, if it was "filled" with vacuum, would float?
User avatar #550 to #455 - Mickeyboi (08/21/2013) [-]
Maybe, but it'd be hard to keep any air out of it as it's very soft and porous(it has applications as a sponge of sorts).

This may be a stupid question, but here goes. If the Aerogel is 7 times lighter than air, would it not float like a balloon?
#251 to #120 - funnymonkeyz (08/21/2013) [-]
It probably means that it is lighter than air (weighs less) so it puts less pressure on things than air does, but it is denser than air, and therefore still has more **** than air and will not float.

User avatar #543 to #120 - hammarhead (08/21/2013) [-]
you are correct, the gel is actually 7 times lighter than the previous gel. their mistake.
User avatar #560 to #543 - victoronefourtwo (08/21/2013) [-]
No, it's 12% lighter than the previous gel. In a vacuum, the volume the aerogel occupies, compared to the volume the same amount of air would occupy, is 7x lighter than air. It's just like how a sponge sinks when you fill it up with water, except the aerogel is filled with air.
User avatar #561 to #560 - hammarhead (08/21/2013) [-]
does this "volume in a vacuum" of yours include the cavities?
User avatar #562 to #561 - victoronefourtwo (08/21/2013) [-]
Yes, it includes all the pores. Like I said, the aerogel is like a sponge.
User avatar #563 to #562 - hammarhead (08/21/2013) [-]
If the volume of these pores is not subtracted from the volume of the total shape, the density would be dramatically inacurate. Especially considering how truely porous this material is.
User avatar #564 to #563 - victoronefourtwo (08/21/2013) [-]
Obviously each graphene atom is heavier than each atom of air. The graphene atoms are spaced out very far, but not enough to make it technically not a solid.
User avatar #565 to #564 - hammarhead (08/21/2013) [-]
exactly. it is still composed of solids. just because these solides are spaced out in a lattice shape, making less of the material occupy more space, the fact of the matter is, it is not lighter than air, it cannot be, because the structure itself is heavier than an equal volume of air.
User avatar #566 to #565 - victoronefourtwo (08/21/2013) [-]
It's just semantics, don't think too hard about it. It's not technically occupying every cavity of space, but it's being measured as such because the space that is within it is impractical to care about when you can't place any other solids within the cavities. That's how they did it, and with that way of putting it, it's 7x lighter than air.
User avatar #568 to #566 - hammarhead (08/21/2013) [-]
I know what you're saying, and speaking strictly technically, one cubic inch of it may have less gravitaional pull than air, although if that were the case, it would without a doubt float in air. Nonetheless, I think we can agree to disagree, unless you can clarify what is meant by "lighter", and how it is still not bouyent in air?
User avatar #569 to #568 - victoronefourtwo (08/21/2013) [-]
Because it's not technically lighter if it was a literal slab of graphite. Think of it like cotton candy. It's not buoyant in because it sucks in the air as well, which fills all the cavities. So, like a sponge filled with water, it sinks.
User avatar #570 to #569 - hammarhead (08/21/2013) [-]
forget everything both of us said and think of this: the definition of a lighter material means that it is less dense, correct? Wood is lighter (less dense) than water, therefore it floats. Air is lighter (less dense) than sulfurhexaflouride (a heavy gas), therefore, air floats above it. By the logic that this material is lighter than air, it should float in air. If it were 7 times lighter, it would have more buoyancy than even helium, and that stuff is pretty damn floaty.
User avatar #571 to #570 - victoronefourtwo (08/21/2013) [-]
Like the wood, it sinks after it sucks in a bunch of water. Except, in this case, it's the aerogel, and the aerogel is sucking in a bunch of air.
It's not like I made up how they would compare it to air. I'm simply telling you how they decided to do it, it's a bad way of comparing it, but it's how they did it.
User avatar #572 to #571 - hammarhead (08/21/2013) [-]
well, wood does not sink, even when thoroughly soaked (hence driftwood), so that wouldn't make any sense. So, you don't know what they meant by lighter, but you're defending it?
User avatar #573 to #572 - victoronefourtwo (08/21/2013) [-]
Not all wood is the same. There are plenty of woods that are more dense than water, if you include the water, it sinks because the pores of air that were inside are now filled with water. I never said I didn't understand what they meant by lighter.
I will say it again, the volume it occupies, WHICH INCLUDES THE CAVITIES INSIDE, WHICH WOULD BE FILLED WITH VACUUM, EVEN THOUGH THAT ISN'T A GOOD WAY TO MEASURE IT, is lighter than the same volume of just air.
User avatar #574 to #573 - hammarhead (08/21/2013) [-]
you don't need to get angry, i'm not attacking you. But, vacuum isn't a substance, I'm not sure why you'd specify it as such. the material itself can be compressed over 90% of it's original volume, meaning it's actual density when compressed is ten times more than when not, therefore, this material is not lighter than the same amount of air, it's just spread out over a wide area.
User avatar #576 to #574 - victoronefourtwo (08/21/2013) [-]
I felt a need to put it in caps to emphasize it.
Anyway, we're getting no where. I didn't specify the vacuum as a substance. The scientists with their decades of knowledge and experience decided to compare it as such.
Once again, this is how they compared it to air, NOT me. It's a bad way to compare it, sure, but once again, they did it like that, that's how they did it, and they decided to do so as they did. I'm just explaining how they did so, regardless of whether or not it's a good or bad way to do so.
User avatar #578 to #576 - hammarhead (08/21/2013) [-]
I see what you're saying. Maybe the data was distorted by the media through which it travelled? I don't think materials scientists of all people would be so willy nilly with their terminology.
User avatar #579 to #578 - victoronefourtwo (08/21/2013) [-]
Probably. It may have also gone through translations. The media may have changed the phrasing around it, causing it to be technically incorrect, but the idea is still there.
User avatar #580 to #579 - hammarhead (08/21/2013) [-]

"The Republic of Kosovo declared independence from Serbia in 2008, but has been blocked from U.N. membership by objections from Serbia, Russia, and other countries which see its secession as invalid."

"The negotiations ran in stages between 2006 and 2007, but only ended with the signing of the Kosovar side, consequently, on 17 February 2008, the Kosova ******** declared Kosova independent.
Recognitions of Kosova’s independence followed immediately afterwards.
Efforts to strengthen Kosova’s international personality as an independent and sovereign state continued. Through its Declaration of Independence, the Republic of Kosova undertook “the duty of responsible membership in the international community” and accepted to “abide by the principles of the United Nations Charter, the Helsinki Final Act, other acts of the Organization on Security and Cooperation in Europe, and the international legal obligations and principles of international comity that mark the relations among states”.
Since then, eighty-eight (88) countries (as of February 17, 2012) have recognized Republic of Kosova, and it has joined, among others, the International Monetary Fund and World Bank. "

"Kosovo declared independence on the 17th of February 2008. The small south east European state sits between Albania, Macedonia, Serbia and Montenegro. The capital of the Republic is Prishtina, a city of around 500,000 people. The population of Kosovo exceeds 2 million. Kosovo is a state that is moving towards European integration, and will eventually become a member of the European Union."

United Kingdom is not a country, it is a sovereign state.
While the two may, at time, exist in the same geographical/political entity, it is not always a case.
A country cannot have other countries under.
Therefore, the UK is not a country, technically, because it has Wales, England, Scotland and N. Ireland within it. (last time I checked, i may be off on the names)
