Answer 5

You can add water to soil and you don't always get mud. Sometimes you get wet soil.

To make mud you really need suspended particles in water. That typically means clay/silt in water. Sand by itslef (which makes up soil) won't do it.

Most dirt has clay and silt in it; this is why wet dirt gets muddy.

Answer 6

Mud: consistent of water and micro particles. This is to say that you can make mud out of anything. Mud in the form of soil particles is generally what this question may pertain to. Soil is made up of organic material that has a jello substance that is not evident without the presence of water. Water is the activator that allows the particles to slip and slide and form a paste. Think of the jello as a lubricant. Various mud's have been mixed for special applications such as wall plaster, grouts and fillers in the construction industry. Wet cement is a mud that is used for molding and road paving. A very slippery mud is is used for lubricating a drill bit when drilling through rock in search of oil and water. The size of the particles and the ability for them to bond with water will create the mud that you need. The jello substance in soil is a clear plastic like substance that can be isolated by a centrifuge. You have to know what your looking for before you will recognize it for what it is. It makes mud sticky in clay based compounds. The chemistry of mud is secretive for many industries. Water is not the only media of mixing. Liquids can be made of any element, all matter is in one of 3 forms. Solid/Liquid/Gas. The Sun boils a highly enriched neodymium base mud. It is a boiling mass of mud. Lava from a volcano is mud; but we do not associate it as being MUD. That's mud in your eye.
