The concrete solidifies and hardens through a chemical process called hydration.(a) True(b) FalseThis question was addressed to me in an online interview.This is a very interesting question from Analysis of Rates of Cement Concrete in portion Analysis of Rates of Civil Engineering Drawing

Answer»

Correct choice is (a) True

To explain I would say: To produce concrete from most cements (excluding asphalt), water is mixed with the dry powder and AGGREGATE, which PRODUCES a semi-liquid SLURRY that can be shaped, typically by pouring it into a form. The concrete solidifies and hardens through a CHEMICAL process called hydration. The water reacts with the cement, which bonds the other components together, CREATING a robust stone-like material.
