The quality of the result produced by this standard is dependent on the competence of the personnel performing it, and the suitability of the equipment and facilities used.
When no method is specified, Method A shall be used. Measurements on soils or soil fractions having particle sizes larger than 2.

ASTM D – 01 Standard Test Method for pH of Soils
Historical Version s – view previous versions of standard. For example, paper with a sensitivity to the nearest 1 pH unit placed into a buffer solution of 4 should indicate a pH of 4, however, it would not indicate if the pH is 4. This measurement determines the degree of acidity or alkalinity in soil materials suspended in water and a 0. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
No other units of measurement are included in this standard. A few such discussions are given as Refs at the end of the text. The pH values obtained in the solution of calcium chloride are slightly lower than those measured in water due to the release of more aluminum ions which then hydrolyses.

It is beyond the scope of these test methods to consider significant digits used in analysis methods for engineering data. In addition, they are representative of the significant digits that generally should 4d972 retained.
Users of this standard are cautioned that compliance with Practice D does not in itself assure reliable results. This method can be used for any application and must be used when the application warrants a higher level of resolution. The low ionic strength counters the dilution effect on the exchange equilibrium by setting the salt concentration of the solution closer to that expected in the soil solution.
A more detailed discussion of the usefulness of this parameter is not warranted here; however, it can be found in many discussions of the subject. Link to Active This link will always f4972 to the current Active version of the standard.

Such measurements are used in the agricultural, environmental, geotechnical, and natural resources fields. The method to be used shall be specified by the requesting authority.
This measurement determines the degree of acidity or alkalinity in soil materials suspended in water and a 0. Work Item s – proposed revisions of this standard.
Measurements in both liquids are necessary to fully define the soil’s pH. This method can be used for any application, however, because paper typically has a lower resolution, it provides an approximate estimate asstm the pH of the soil and should not be used when the application requires a higher level of resolution Note 1.
Active view current version of standard. If soil or soil fractions with particles larger than 2. This variable is useful in determining the solubility of soil minerals and the mobility of ions in the soil and astk the viability of the soil-plant environment.
Referenced Documents purchase separately The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard. Therefore, both measurements are needed to d4792 define the character of the soil’s pH.
Work Item s – proposed revisions of this standard.
Measurements in both liquids are necessary to fully define the soil’s pH. This variable is satm in determining the solubility of soil minerals and the mobility of ions in the soil and assessing the viability of the soil-plant environment.
Reliable results depend on many factors; Practice D provides a means of evaluating some of those factors.
A more detailed discussion of the usefulness of this parameter is given in D49722 1- 6 2. The pH is determined in test water and a calcium chloride solution for both methods.
It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
