Question

Match List-I with List-II

List-I	List-II
(A) Less than 0.002 mm	(IV) Clay
(B) 0.075 mm to 0.002 mm	(III) Silt
(C) 0.80 mm to 4.75 mm	(II) Sand
(D) 4.75 mm to 0.075 mm	(I) Gravel

Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

• (A) - (IV), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (I)
• (A) - (I), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (IV)
• (A) - (IV), (B) - (III), (C) - (I), (D) - (II)
• (A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II)

Hint:

Gravel is the largest particle size, followed by sand, silt, and clay, which is the smallest.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Understanding Particle Size Ranges.
- (A) Less than 0.002 mm corresponds to clay (IV).
- (B) 0.075 mm to 0.002 mm corresponds to silt (III).
- (C) 0.80 mm to 4.75 mm corresponds to sand (II).
- (D) 4.75 mm to 0.075 mm corresponds to gravel (I).

Step 2: Conclusion.
Thus, the correct matching is: (A) - (IV), (B) - (III), (C) - (I), (D) - (II), making option (3) the correct answer.

Final Answer: \[ \boxed{3. \, (A) - (IV), (B) - (III), (C) - (I), (D) - (II)} \]
