Experiment 13

1. The document describes an experiment to study the moisture content of different soil samples. Soil samples were collected from different locations and their initial and final weights were recorded before and after drying to determine moisture lost. 2. Observations of the initial and final weights of each soil sample were recorded. The difference between initial and final weights showed the moisture content of each soil. 3. Proper precautions like separately packaging and bringing soil samples to the lab were important to get accurate results. Layer thickness and particle percentages in samples were also carefully measured.
