Question

Define capillary water, hydroscopic water and combined water.

Answer 1

Capillary water: It is the water that moves through the small pore spaces of soil against the pull of gravity.
Hydroscopic water: The small amount of water that forms an extremely thin, tightly held film around the soil particles is termed as hydroscopic water.
Combined water : A small amount of soil water is chemically bound with soil particles. It is called combined water.
