Which aspect of soil characteristics is a munsell chart used for? select one: a. determining color b. determining soil composition c. separating soils by grain size d. determining soil conservation techniques

The answer is A) determining color

The Munsell chart uses a three-dimensional diagram, factoring value, hue, and chroma, to determine the exact nature of a color. This is not limited to soil use, and is a general guide for more properly describing a color. Its applicability to soil is that the specific color of a soil can be indicative of other properties. 

answer and explanation;

composition refers to both the types of minerals within a rock and the overall chemical makeup of the rock while texture refers to the size and arrangement of the minerals or grains that make up a rock. both composition and texture can be used to classify rocks, such as igneous rocks. texture describes how the rock became solid or crystallized from liquid, melted rock. composition of a rock describes the minerals that make up a particular rock.
