The saturated clay sample was weighed in a container and the total weight was 7.4 N. 24 hours 105 degreesAfter waiting in the oven, the container was weighed again, this time it was measured as 5.6 N. The weight of the container is given as 0.7 N. Given the specific gravity of 2.66 for the soil, a) water content b) void ratio c) porosity d) density and e)Calculate the unit weight.

Two days after heavy rain a 100 g soil sample was collected. The size of the remaining hole was 70 cm3. The air-dry soil weighs 80 g and contains 10% hygroscopic water. Calculate the oven-dry weight, the percentage of capillary water, bulk density and the percentage of pore space. Assume a particle density of 2.65 g/cm3
It is needed to determine the moist unit weight of the soil for field compaction testing. A silty soil sample has a mass of 612 grams. The soil sample was then covered in beeswax and the combined weight was 650 g. The soil covered in wax, was then immersed in the water and the graduated cylinder registered a volume difference of 404 ml. The wax was gently peeled off the soil. Moisture content = 12% Specific Gravity = 2.78 But if the wax has a specific gravity of 0.94, determine the following: Dry unit weight of the soil Void ratio of the soil % of air in relation to the soil solids of the sample
You are working in a lab and are tasked with determining the percent plant available water for a particular soil sample. You take a field soil sample. The mass of your sample was 152g and it had 18.3% moisture by mass. Then, you place the soil sample in your pressure plate extractor and determine that the soil sample weighs 164.2g when the moisture potential is -33kPa and 130.7g at -1500kPa. What is the percent plant available moisture by mass of this soil sample? Please answer to one decimal place.

1.4 A test for the relative density of soil in place was performed by digging a small hole in the soil. The volume of the hole was 400 ml and the moist weight of the excavated soil was 9 N. after oven drying, the weight was 7.8 N. Of the dried soil, 4N was poured into a vessel in a very loose state, and its volume was found to be 270 ml. The same weight of soil when vibrated and compacted had a volume of 200 ml. Determine the relative density.
A sample of soil in its natural state has a volume of 1.396 m3 and weighs 18.662 kN. The sample was taken to the laboratory to determine the mass of solids. After oven-drying, the soil weighs 15.036 kN. If the specific gravity of the soil solids is 2.667, determine the following: Porosity, Degree of saturation, Effective unit weight. show complete solution
