When the soil is fully saturated with its specific gravity of solids G=2.7 and voids ratio e=0.667, its water content is ______

a) 0.326
b) 0.247
c) 0.543
d) 1

Answer: b
Explanation: Given,
Degree of saturation S=1
Specific gravity G=2.7
Voids ratio e = (W*G)/S = Wsat*G
Wsat = e/G
Wsat = 0.667/2.7
Wsat = 0.247.
