268 TNT 98 5:21 B/s SITUATION 2 In an experiment of determining the porosity and specific gravity of solids of a soil, a soil is dug out from the ground, weighed, then oven dried, and then saturated with water. The weight of the soil taken from the test hole is 1346 grams. It was then oven dried and weighed 1076 grams. After saturating it with water, it weighed 1462 grams. The volume of the test hole was then measured and found to be 792 сс. Determine the void ratio (in percentage) of the soil sample. Your answer SITUATION 3 A sample of clay soil of volume 1/1000 cubic meter and mass of 1.762 kg, after being dried out in an oven had a mass of 1.368 kg.
