In general, water and sand do not have a chemical relationship. Something might happen if the sand grains are partially composed of a mineral that is water soluble. In that case, water will dissolve water soluble material in sand. But that is a physicalactivity and not a chemical one. Water and sand do not react chemically.

What kind of weathering is more rapid in a warm wet climate?
chemical weathering
The density of wet sand is 120 lbs per cubic foot the density of dry sand is 100 lbs per cubic foot if a truck delivers 135 cubic feet of wet sand back to the coast whats the wt of the water inside?
To find the weight of the water inside the wet sand, we first need to calculate the weight of the wet sand delivered: 135 cubic feet * 120 lbs/cubic foot = 16,200 lbs of wet sand. Next, we find the weight of the dry sand in the wet sand delivered: 135 cubic feet * 100 lbs/cubic foot = 13,500 lbs of dry sand. The weight of the water inside the wet sand is the the difference between the weight of the wet sand and the weight of the dry sand: 16,200 lbs (wet sand) - 13,500 lbs (dry sand) = 2,700 lbs of water.
What is the dominant feel of sand?
Grainy, unless the sand was wet.
Is wet sand heterogenous or homogenous?
Wet sand is considered heterogeneous because it contains a mixture of different-sized particles that are not uniformly distributed.
Is wet sand incompressible?
No, wet sand is compressible because water molecules can fill the gaps between sand particles, allowing them to be compressed together. The presence of water makes wet sand more malleable compared to dry sand.

What happens to sand when it gets wet?
When sand gets wet, its composition changes as water fills the gaps between the grains of sand. This causes the sand to stick together more, creating a firmer and more solid texture. Wet sand is commonly used to build sandcastles because of its ability to hold shapes better than dry sand.
