Q754
Which is not a correct match in the following
A.
Flocculation : Setting of the soil particles
B.
Dispersion : Repellence of the soil particles
C.
Cohesion : Attraction of the soil particles
D.
Structure : Relative distribution of the soil particles
AnswerAnswer: Option D
Solution
Answer: Option D
Solution:
Flocculation is a process where individual clay particles are pulled together.Dispersion is the act of repellence of the soil particles.
Cohesion is the intermolecular attraction between the molecules of soil particles.
Soil structure is defined by the way individual particles of sand, silt and clay are assembled. Thus this was not correctly matched.
