Question

In a measuring cylinder initial volume of the water is 75 ml and final volume of water is 50 ml. Find out the percentage of water absorbed by the soil

Answer 1

Dear Student,

◆ Answer -

33.33 % of water is absorbed by the soil.

● Explaination -

Percentage of water absorbed by the soil is calculated as -

Percentage of water absorbed = 100 × (initial volume - final volume) / initial volume

Percentage of water absorbed = 100 × (75 - 50) / 75

Percentage of water absorbed = 100 × 25/75

Percentage of water absorbed = 33.33 %

Therefore, 33.33 % of water is absorbed by the soil.

Thanks dear. Hope this helps you...
