What is the difference between silt and clay?
Silt is larger in particle size than clay and feels gritty when dry, while clay is finer in particle size and feels sticky when wet. Silt is more fertile than clay and drains better, while clay holds more water and nutrients.
What is smaller silt or clay?
Clay particles are smaller than silt particles. Clay particles are smaller than 0.002 mm in diameter, while silt particles range from 0.002 to 0.05 mm.
Which soil is most dense silt clay or sand?
Clay is the most dense soil type, followed by silt and then sand. Clay particles are finer and more closely packed, which gives clay a higher density compared to silt and sand.
Which is heavier clay or silt?
Clay is generally heavier than silt because clay particles are smaller and more densely packed together, resulting in a higher density. Silt particles are larger and less dense, making them lighter than clay particles.
