When theres too much water to soak into the soil, it fills surface depressions and begins to flow. with enough speed the surface runoff carries away the loosened soil.
Yes, when the water table reaches the surface, it can create a lake if there is a depression or low-lying area to hold the water. The water will collect in this area, forming a lake.
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.
When there is more water than the air can hold, the excess water vapor in the air condenses into liquid water droplets, leading to the formation of clouds, fog, or precipitation. This process is known as saturation, and it occurs when the air reaches its dew point temperature.
As particle size increases, capillarity decreases because larger particles have lower surface area-to-volume ratio, reducing the ability to draw in and hold water through capillary action. This is because larger particles have less surface area available for water to cling to compared to smaller particles.
An aquifer is an underground layer of permeable rock that holds water, while a reservoir is an artificial or natural storage area for water above ground. Both store and provide water for human use, but aquifers are typically deeper underground and hold water in pore spaces between rocks, whereas reservoirs hold water in a contained surface area like a lake or dam.
It becomes fluid mud and can flow.
A sponge is an example of something that soaks up water. Its porous texture allows it to absorb and hold liquid.
Materials such as sponges, towels, and paper towels are known to soak up water due to their high absorbency. These materials contain tiny pores or spaces that can trap and hold water molecules.

Volume is two dimensional and no area can hold 25 gallons of water, however 25 gallons is a volume. Do you mean what dimensions would hold 25 gallons?
As the air gets warmer, it's ability to hold water vapor increases.
what happens when a plant does not have enough water?
Wilting takes place
As the air gets warmer, it's ability to hold water vapor increases.
As the air gets warmer, it's ability to hold water vapor increases.
Water, very little, but it still needs water like any other living thing on this planet. When it rains in the desert, the cacti soaks up as much water as it can possibly hold, it uses very little of it, as it may not rain for centuries in the desert!
Think if your emotions like water and you hold them in a balloon. You can keep filling the balloon with water, but eventually it's going to pop and the water will spill everywhere.
