False! The reduction in pressure causes the gasses to exsolve (come out of solution) and escape into the atmosphere, so the dissolved gas content of a magma reduces when it reaches the surface.

Why do many hot springs have dissolved minerals?

Hot springs often have dissolved minerals because the underground water they come into contact with travels through rocks and soil, picking up minerals along the way. When this heated water reaches the surface and emerges as a hot spring, it brings these dissolved minerals with it, contributing to the unique mineral content of the spring.

Why do humus tend to increase with the clay content of soil?

As the clay content increases, there is more surface area in the soil for organic matter to adsorb to, which decreases the rate of decomposition.


How the moisture content of the aggregates obtainable at site affects the water content ratio specified?

Obviously, if the aggregates are in a surface wet condition, meaning the moisture content is greater than the absorption, that surface water increases the water-to-cement ratio and affects strength and durability.
