How does carbonic acid weather rocks?
Carbonic Acid can change the chemical composition of minerals and rocks.
Explain how carbonic acid weather rocks?
Carbonic Acid can change the chemical composition of minerals and rocks.
What factor does not exert pressure on rocks that lead to physical weathering?
carbonic acid
What would weather faster exposed limestone in southern Florida or exposed granite in northern Canada?
Limestone in southern Florida, because carbonic acid would make it weather faster. Another gas found in air, carbon dioxide, also causes chemical weathering. Carbon dioxide dissolves in rainwater and in water that sinks through air pockets in the soil. The result is a weak acid called carbonic acid. Carbonic acid easily weathers rocks such as marble and limestone.
What are two kinds of rocks that are easily weathered by carbonic acid?
Limestone and marble.

Explain how carbonic acid weather rocks?

How does carbon dioxide in the air weather rocks?
Carbonic acid reacts chemically with limestone, which is observed as weathering. As such, carbonic acid weathering is a chemical, not physical, change.
What types of rock does carbonic acid weather easily?
calcite
Does Water and carbonic acid play a major role in the chemical weathering of rocks?
Yes, it is correct; for example calcium carbonate react with carbonic acid.
In some rocks-reacts with carbonic acid?

What reacts with carbonic acid in some rocks beginning with g?
geological
Carbonic acid dissolves limestone and other rocks This is an example of?
Fizz
What does calcite weather to form during dissolution?
carbonic acid
