**Notes:**
- The table presents data from multiple trials to determine the moisture content and unit weight of soil samples.
- Empty cells indicate where data needs to be calculated based on provided values.
- Water content percentage is to be calculated using the weight of water relative to the weight of dry soil.
- The wet and dry unit weights have not been filled out here and should be computed as part of the analysis.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Faabe700c-f83e-4fff-87d9-2cca1d7d8017%2F550aec5e-5366-424e-82da-92c4f54bbaa0%2F3j8w85k_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
