Answer: c) 2 g/cc
Explanation:
Given Data:
• Bulk density of soil sample = 2.4 g/cm3
• The moisture content of soil sample = 20%Solution:
The dry density of soil = Bulk density of soil sample / (1 + Moisture content of soil sample)
Dry density of soil = 2.4 / (1 + 0.2)
The dry density of soil = 2 g/cc
