Detailed explanation-1: -Soil particles vary greatly in size, and soil scientists classify soil particles into sand, silt, and clay. Starting with the finest, clay particles are smaller than 0.002 mm in diameter. Some clay particles are so small that ordinary microscopes do not show them. Silt particles are from 0.002 to 0.05 mm in diameter.

Detailed explanation-2: -2.0-0.06 mm Was this answer helpful?

Detailed explanation-3: -Coarse sand particles are of 0.2 to 2.00 mm in size; 0.02 to 0.2 mm particles constitute fine sand; 0.002 to 0.02 particles represent silt and particles smaller than 0.002 mm are called clay.

Detailed explanation-4: -Soil particles between 0.002 and 0.1 mm are called silt, and even smaller particles, less than 0.002 mm in diameter, are called clay. Some soils have no dominant particle size, containing a mixture of sand, silt, and humus; these soils are called loams.

Detailed explanation-5: -Sand, silt, and clay are made from different rocks and minerals but the other important difference between them is the size of their particles. Sand has the biggest, clay the smallest and silt is in between.
