In a greenhouse study, air-dry soil was packed uniformly in pots to a porosity of 0.46. The total volume of each pot was 2000cm3, the soil particle density was 2.60 g/cm3 and the water content of the air-dry soil was 2.00g / 100.00 g of oven-dry soil.
b. What volume of water is required to increase the volumetric water content to
0.30cm3/cm3?
