A shrinkage limit test is performed on a soil. The initial mass and volume of the soil are: V1=20.2cm^3 , while the final mass and volume are M2=24g and V2=14.3cm^3 . Note that in the initial state the soil is saturated, whereas in the final state the soil is completely dry. Calculate:
a. the shrinkage limit SL of the soil.
b. the void ratio at the SL.
c. Gs of the soil solids.
d. the initial void ratio.
