    This document presents the results of a hydrometer analysis conducted on a Yolo Loam soil sample. It includes tables showing hydrometer readings taken over multiple time intervals, calculations to determine particle size distribution, and tests to determine the liquid limit and plastic limit. The analysis found that 50% of the Yolo Loam particles had a diameter less than 0.01 mm, with the liquid limit around 29% and plastic limit near 20%.
