Na2 SiO3 + H2O >>>>> Si(OH)4 + Na2SO4
regular (silica) aerogel is not lighter than air but SEAgel is a form of aerogel that is lighter than air
The most common use for Aerogel is for thermal insulation. Silica Aerogel has been used to help insulate the Mars Rover and protected all the wiring from the extreme temperatures it faces in outer space.
the strength of aerogel is the closest thing to graghene.its basicly a see through type of crystelized gel.
Foam at the top of a glass of beer is liquid combined with gas. Liquid foam with gas is also called froth. A foam sponge would be an example of a solid with air ( a gas ) pockets throughout. Similarly, volcanic rock which is lightweight, has plenty of gas bubbles throughout. Also there are more technologically advanced solid foams used in industry which are made of metals like aluminum, steel or even non metals like solid carbon. Therefore, foam can either a solid or a liquid.
The answer depends on the solid. The solid with the lowest known density is graphene aerogel, with a density of just 0.00016 g/cc. Osmium has the highest measured density of 22.59 g/cc (approx 141,000 times as great). Hassium has a predicted density of 41 g/cc which has not been verified. However, solids, sch as material from a neutron star will have a density of approx 10^26 g/cc.
Aerogel is 39 times more insulating than the best fiberglass ever made.
There is a type of material called Aerogel. The most common form is made of Silicon. The Silicon Aerogel is the best known insulator in the world, as well as being the least dense. Aerogel is made by removing all of the liquids from silica gel and replacing it with air.

the aerogel
The proper spelling is aerogel. It is not specially capitalized at the beginning or in the middle, nor should it contain a hyphen or a space. The word has been in technical usage since 1931 and is not a tradename or proper noun. Common incorrect spellings include "Aerogel', "AeroGel", "aero-gel", "aero gel", and alternative phonetic spellings such as "airojell" and "aerojell".

After the published tables the silica aerogel is a very good thermal insulator.
