Sand can hold varying amounts of water depending on factors like particle size and compaction. On average, sand can hold about 20-30% of its volume in water. Fine sand can hold more water than coarse sand due to its higher surface area and pore space.

Why does soil retains water better than sand?

Soil retains water better than sand because it has smaller particles with more surface area to trap and hold onto water molecules. Additionally, soil contains organic matter that can act like a sponge, absorbing and storing water. Sand, on the other hand, has larger particles with less surface area and does not have the same capacity to hold water.

Why does sand hold so much water?

Sand has high porosity, meaning it has many small spaces between its particles where water can be held. The small size of the sand particles and the forces of attraction between water molecules and the sand particles also contribute to its water-holding capacity. Additionally, the irregular shape of sand particles creates more surface area for water to adhere to.
