Across
- 3. lays the particles flat along the clay sheet
- 4. is composed of alternate layers of silica and gibbsite
- 5. the particles are placed concentrically
- 9. is the lubricant between the particles
- 13. concerned with the size and shape of the clay crystal and resulting agglomerate particles
- 15. can be conveniently represented by a series of two-dimensional diagrams
- 16. explained by understanding which way compression was applied
- 17. must slide further past each other
- 19. are dependent upon its lattice structure
- 20. most common element in the earth's crust, in the sea, and in the atmosphere
Down
- 1. the particles are being asked to rearrange their relative positions
- 2. by blunging, ageing, souring, and de-aring which divide the clay grains into smaller particles and improve the lubrication between particles
- 6. weaker than fine clay
- 7. position themselves with their flat faces opposing the direction of pressure
- 8. contains pore water and remains in the pores and does not dry out because there is water in the atmosphere
- 10. layer is fastened to a gibbsite layer by oxygen links
- 11. layer is attached to others by hydroxyl bonds to form crystals
- 12. will be by amount effect
- 14. are more plastic than the coarse ones
- 18. the contrast of a plastic material like clay and non-plastic one
