Chemical weathering can form a cavern by infiltrating pore spaces in limestone.
No, chemical because it involves water and water is a subject of Chemical Weathering not Mechanical.
chemical wethering plainly shapes of rock or terrain, it can be washed away and aged, many things can occur.
Mechanical and chemical factors are some of the factors that bring about the weathering of the rocks.
No, it is stalactites that form on the ceilings. Stalagmites form on the cavern floors.
Chemical weathering is caused by acid rain. The acid rain will eat away at the rock causing it to erode. This is one of the many forms of chemical weathering.

Two processes that can break down rocks are weathering, which is the breakdown of rocks into smaller pieces by natural elements like sunlight, water, and wind, and erosion, which is the transport of these smaller rock fragments by forces like water, ice, or wind.
I'll explore this cavern when I have a flashlight.
Caverns that form in limestone areas, due to rain water dissolving the limestone over millions of years, produce stalactites and stalagmites. Stalactites are icicle-like rock formations of deposited limestone hanging down from the cavern's roof. Stalagmites grow upwards from the cavern floor, due to the limestone solution dripping on the floor from the roof. In some cases, the stalactite and stalagmite joins in the middle to form a column.
