3. A sample of clayey silt is mixed at about its Liquid Limit of 40. It is placed carefully in a small porcelain dish with a volume of 19.3 cm3 and weight 34.67 g. After oven dying, the soil pat displaced 216.8 g of mercury. a. Determine the shrinkage limit of the soil sample. b. Determine the density of the soil ps. c. Determine the dry density of the soil if it has a void ratio of 0.72. fine-grained soil is found to have a liguid limit of 90% and a plasticity index of 51 The natural water content is 280%
