98) Find the value of the volume of void if the porosity of soil is 0.7 & the volume of soil is 100m3?
a) 50 m3
b) 60 m3
c) 70 m3
d) 80 m3

Answer: c) 70 m3
Explanation:
Porosity is the ratio of volume of void to the total volume.
∴ n = (Vv / V ) x 100
∴ 0.7 = (Vv / 100 ) x 100
∴ Vv = 70 m3
Hence, the volume of void is 70m3.
