Lab 1b

Aerogel is one of the most fascinating and unique materials ever developed. Sometimes nicknamed “frozen smoke” or “solid air,” aerogel is renowned for being the world’s lightest solid material — and for its astonishing insulating properties.

Invented in the 1930s by Samuel Kistler, aerogel is created by removing the liquid component from a gel and replacing it with gas without collapsing the solid framework. What’s left is a porous, sponge-like structure made up of up to 99.8% air by volume. This remarkable structure gives aerogels their record-breaking low density, translucence, and incredibly low thermal conductivity.

One of the best-known types is silica aerogel, made from silicon dioxide — the same basic material as glass. When held up, it appears ghostly blue and almost weightless. Despite its fragile appearance, aerogel can support thousands of times its own weight.

Aerogel’s standout feature is its superb insulation capability. Its nanoporous network makes it…

I was working on lab 1B and when I went to download the package it says that there is an error for the webpage. I already refreshed the page many times and I do not know what else to do

Hello,

I am a student and for my class I have to complete Max Labs. As I am working on 1b I have to purchase the Pitch Package. After I paid and clicked install. The page says “Insufficient Privileges”. I attached an image of that. I even got an email confirmation for my payment. In the instructions for the lab it says after installing it I am

supposed to see “ Install Max’s Pitch Package” back in SF tab. But I can’t see that either.

My lab is due tomorrow so can you please help me with this issue?

Hello, I tried correcting a checkpoint on my lab 1b, relating to creating the equity vs investment chart report but for some reason I'm not able to ad a chart here. The add chart button is greyed out.
