What is capillarity in soil?
it is the ability of soil to retain water
Which soil has highest percolation rate?
The soil with the highest rate of percolation is sandy soil.
What happens to capillarity as particle size increases?
As particle size in increases, capillarity decreases
Which soil has highest infiltration rate?
Sandy Soil has the highest infiltration rate as sandy soil has big spaces between its particles.
What soil has the highest permeability clay sand or silt?
clay and soil

What happens to capillarity as particle size increases?
As particle size in increases, capillarity decreases
How does particle size effect capillarity?
As long as the spaces between the particles are connected, the smaller the particles, the higher the capillarity. The larger the particles, the lower the capillarity.Particle size and capillarity are inversely, or negatively related.
Which soil has highest infiltration rate?
Sandy Soil has the highest infiltration rate as sandy soil has big spaces between its particles.
Is soil the highest specific heat capacity?
Water has a higher Specific Heat than soil. The very highest is ammonia.
What is the attraction between molecules that result in the rise of liquid in small tubes?
capillarity, also known as capillary action.
What region has the highest soil performance with a medium soil resistance?
malaysia
What soil has the highest permeability clay sand or silt?
clay and soil
What organism uses capillarity?
a plant
What are the examples of capillarity?
Capillarity is the movement of liquid without any external forces. The flow of oil in a wick absorption of liquid by paper towel are examples of capillarity.
