All of the particles in these four columns are classified as
clay
has smaller pore spaces
less permeability and greater capillarity
The permeability of B is greater than the permeability of A.
A
pebbles
silt and sand
capillarity is greater in soils with smaller particles
Which statement best explains the observed change in the water content of the soil samples?
clay
has smaller pore spaces
less permeability and greater capillarity
The permeability of B is greater than the permeability of A.
A
pebbles
silt and sand
capillarity is greater in soils with smaller particles
The pebble-and-sand soil has greater capillarity than the pebble soil because the pebble and sand soil
