Clay:It contains fine particles. It has the capacity to hold water. It doesn't hold air. Therefore it is very heavy in weight.
Sand:It contains large particles. It has large spaces in between them. It can retain water. Therefore it is light in weight.
Yes, clay particles are very small, smaller than sand particles.
Sand settles faster than pebbles and clay. Sand particles have smaller size and lower density, allowing them to quickly compact and settle in a sedimentation process. Pebbles are larger and denser, while clay particles are very fine and may take longer to settle due to their tendency to remain suspended in water.
The four main types of soil are sand, silt, clay, and loam. Sand is coarse and drains quickly, silt is smooth and retains moisture well, clay is sticky and compact, and loam is a mixture of sand, silt, and clay with good drainage and nutrient retention. Each type of soil has different characteristics that affect plant growth and water retention.
Clay sand is a type of soil composed of a combination of clay and sand particles. It is often found in areas where the two types of particles have mixed together naturally, resulting in a soil type that contains properties of both clay and sand. Clay sand can be challenging to work with because it tends to be compacted and has poor drainage.
Loam soil holds more water than clay soil. This is because loam soil is a mixture of sand, silt, and clay, which allows for better drainage and moisture retention compared to pure clay soil, which tends to compact and hold water tightly.
Sand is a lot of tiny rocks and clay is very compact soil.

Because clay is harder and if you put water on sand then it will just sink in. Tehehehe
It would get harder once they clay dry's.
swamp+sand=clay
mud+sand=clay
Clay is soft and sand is like sand water

Yes if the sand is on the clay it can roll even if the sand was not on the clay.The clay can still roll.

I think sand is better. Because you can always add organic material to sand to make it hold moisture and be more fertile. Thick clay needs to be broken up by the addition of something, like sand, to make it more porous and free draining this is harder to do than to add organic material to sand.
Swamp + sand = clay it is really... Mud+sand = clay
