Q1: 260 g of wet soil was taken in a pycnometer jar of weight 400 g in order to find the moisture content in the soil, with specific gravity of soil particles 2.75. The weight of soil and remaining water filled in pycnometer without air bubbles was 1415 g and the weight of pycnometer filled with water alone was 1275 g. The moisture content in the soil isA
24.2%
B
18.2%
C
53.8%
D
none of these.
ANS:B - 18.2% WATER CONTENT = ([{(W2 - W1)/(W3 - W4)}{(G-1)/G]-1)*100. |
