Can ice be an agent of chemical weathering?
No ice is an agent of physical weathering
What is the acid precipitation is an agent of weathering?
acid precipitation is an agent of -------weathering
What is the most active agent of physical weathering?
The most active agent of physical weathering is water. Water can seep into cracks in rocks, freeze, expand, and cause the rock to break apart. This process is known as frost wedging and is a common form of physical weathering.
Acid precipitation is an agent of what kind of weathering?
Chemical weathering.
Is deposition an agent of weathering?
no
What are the agent of rock?
what are the agents of weathering
Why sun is agent of weathering?
The sun is not considered an agent of weathering. Weathering refers to the process of breaking down rocks and minerals on the Earth's surface, which is primarily caused by factors like water, wind, and temperature changes. The sun's energy can contribute to weathering indirectly by causing temperature changes that lead to expansion and contraction of rocks, but it is not a direct agent of weathering.
What are four factors that affect how fast weathering happens?
the nature of the material weathered (shape, size, composition) the nature of the weathering agent the frequency of the weathering agent the properties of the surrounding environment
How unloading acts as a weathering agent?
Unloading acts as a weathering agent by breaking bedrock into smaller pieces. This increases the surface area along which chemical reactions can occur, which eventually leads to weathering.
How can gravity act as an agent of weathering?
If you drop a rock and it breaks into pieces, then that is an act of mechanical weathering.
The most important agent of chemical weathering?
Water
How animals become the agent of weathering?
by scratching the rocks
