B.

cone penetrometer method

C.

pycnometer method

D.

pipette method

Correct option is D


In this question, sand bath method is used for determine the unit weight of soil and cone penetration method is used for find the geotechnical properties of soil, and with the help of pycnometer method we find water content, when specific gravity is known. The particle size analysis of fine grained soils can be more accurately determined in the laboratory by the pipette method.
