Light sandy soils drain quickly after rain or watering. They warm up more quickly in spring than clay soils.

QUESTION ---- Why is sandy soil light

ANSWER
_____________________________

Sandy Soil is light because it consists of small granular sand particles which are lossely held. Moreover, Sandy soil has less density.

We know the Relation,

Density = Mass × Volume

Mass = Density / Volume

This proves that if we take same volume of clayey soli (high in density) will have more mass than Sandy soil (low in density)

Less number of Grains of sand are present in same volume as that of clayey soil.

AND Because of its low water retaining capacity , It doesn't hold water which makes it more lighter.
