Detailed explanation-1: -Clay, shale and slate are rocks that do not allow water to pass through and are therefore classified as impermeable.

Detailed explanation-2: -Impermeable Material means material that is impenetrable by water and includes building coverage, asphalt, concrete, and brick, stone, and wood that do not have permeable spacing.

Detailed explanation-3: -An impermeable surface is any solid surface that will not allow water to penetrate through such as asphalt, concrete, stone, brick, roofing, or extremely compacted ground like a soccer field.

Detailed explanation-4: -Clay and granite are impermeable, meaning that water cannot pass through. When water reaches the impermeable materials it is trapped and forms the water table – where we get our water.

Detailed explanation-5: -Common materials that are considered impermeable include glass, plastic, asphalt, concrete, and clay.
