Mass of a dried soil sample is 250 grams (Ms). water, the soil particles displace 95 cm³ [giving us the volume of soil solids] (Vs). Use this information to calculate the specific gravity (Gs) of the soil solids. Pw = (1 gm/cm3³) (Hint, you can use the last formula from 'Illustration 3-3' from the textbook) (No Phase Diagram for 3-5) Gs = Ms Vs P
