It is different for different types of soils because different soils have different properties, such as particle size, shape, and mineralogy. The coefficient of compressibility is also different for a soil under different states of consolidation because the soil will compress more or less depending on how much stress it has already been subjected to.<\/p>\n<p>Option A is incorrect because the coefficient of compressibility is not constant for any type of soil. Option C is incorrect because the coefficient of compressibility is not the same for a soil under different states of consolidation.
