clay has a chemical in it that absorbs water.So it holds water well.But it will not drain fast.
Dry clay can be recycled by putting it in water. This will remoisten the clay and allow it to be kneaded and molded. Once clay has been fired it can no longer be recycled. Fired clay can be soaked a long time and will not dissolve.
you take a piece of clay and use it on a bucket of water, voila, soft clay.

In the "Kilning" and "bisquing" processes, the moist clay loses water (Evaporates). The water makes up about 5-10 % of the clays' substance, thus, on average, clay shrinks about 15-20% after it is in its final finished stage.
Soft clay is simply clay added with water. All you do is mine clay (lvl 5 mining req.) take a bucket of water and use the clay on the water.
Water is held between soil particles by capillary forces. Coarse sandy soils have large pores and water drains through it quickly. Clay soils have smaller pores and are able to hold more water.
Water molecules have the ability to bond with the polar and charged surfaces of clay particles, leading to adsorption of water molecules on the clay surface. This adsorption process alters the properties of water, making it behave differently when interacting with clay compared to pure water.

Clay, in fact, does sink at certain conditions. ~Liz http://eragongal44.webs.com
yes clay is made of water also made of rocks and minerals
i don't know clay soil lack air and water
Clay can contain air bubbles which contain water. When the clay is fired, the heat rapidly expands that water vapor, causing the piece to explode. Therefore, clay pieces should be hollow, with a hole for expanding air and water to escape.

Yes, powdered clay in water is a mixture. When clay is added to water, it forms a suspension where the clay particles are dispersed throughout the water but do not dissolve. This means that the components retain their individual properties, and the mixture can often be separated by settling or filtration.
