Soil liquefaction occurs when stress or pressure is applied to soil with water content too large to allow for the soil to remain in a dry solid state. Highly plastic clay is itself prone to liquefaction due to its high average water capacity. Which of the following is least likely to contribute to the soil’s potential to liquefy?

A. The low average water capacity of limestone bedrock, because water cannot enter the bedrock and becomes stuck in the permeable topsoil and highly plastic clay 

B. The high calcium carbonate content of limestone bedrock, because it makes the bedrock more porous 

C. The plasticity of highly plastic clay when the clay mixes with water, which causes it to move more freely 

D. The permeability of the permeable topsoil, because it allows water to flow through it become absorbed more quickly 

                       

                                                                   

B. The high calcium carbonate content of limestone bedrock, because it makes the bedrock more porous
