Problem $2.$

Given: The moist weight of $0\mathrm{.}2ft3$ of a soil is $23lb.$ The moisture

content and the specific gravity of the soil solids are determined in

the laboratory to be $11\%$ and $2\mathrm{.}7,$ respectively. Complete parts $($a$)-$

$($c$)$ below

Part $($a$)$

First, draw the phase diagram, calculate and show the values of

different weights and volumes on the phase diagram. Then, match

the values of each weight and volume below:

IMPORTANT NOTE: You must show the completed phase diagram

Weight of solids $($unit: lb$)$

Weight of water $($unit: lb$)$

Volume of solids $($unit: $f{t}^{{?}^{{?}^{?}}}3)$

Volume of water $($unit: $f{t}^{{?}^{{?}^{?}}}3)$

Volume of air $($unit: $f{t}^{{?}^{{?}^{?}}}3)$
