Detailed Solution

When soil is dissolved and mixed with water, a layer of soil floats on the surface of the water. This layer consists of a humus.
Humus are some dead rotting leaves and are lighter than water hence they will float on the water surface. It is dark organic matter in the soil which is formed by the decomposition of plant and animal matter. It is rich in nutrients and retains moisture into the soil. It is used to describe a topsoil horizon which contains organic matter.
