You've conducted a soil extraction on the site to have its soil profile determine, you've gathered the data has follows: Mass of the soil sample = 15 kilograms; Volume of the soil sample=0.007 cubic meter; Water content = 15%; Specific Gravity = 2.7. Determine the following: Void Ratio, Porosity, Saturation, Density of the Soil, Dry Density of the Soil, Unit weight of the soil, Dry Unit Weight of the soil, Saturated Unit Weight of the soil.
