You find that the CEC of a sandy loam soil at pH 5.0 is 8 cmolc/kg and at pH 8.2 it is 14 cmolc/kg. What is the most likely reason for this difference?
 
  A) removal of Al atoms from tetrahedral layers at low pH
  B) ionization of carboxyl and phenolic groups to release H+ ions
  C) removal of Al3+ ions from the exchange complex at higher pH
  D) replacement of trivalent Al3+ ions with divalent Ca2+ ions at high pH
  E) increase in the pH-dependent charges on 1:1 type silicate clays

Question 2

If supplied with a suitable nutrient solution, plants can grow normally without any soil at all.
