is because they react to the iron and form rust
Water, Acids , and Air are all agents of chemical weathering
It breaks rock apart.
Rust is formed when iron reacts with oxygen in the air. It's not erosion, it's a chemical change called oxidation.
Chlorine
Hydrogen. Water and carbon dioxide are chemical compounds, Air is a mixture of gases.

acids, air, water, oxidation, ground water, acid rain, and acid that comes from living things
It doesn't. If it is IN a living thing it is not available to cause weathering elsewhere!
It breaks rock apart.
When minerals come into contact with air and water, some dissolve and others react and change into different minerals.
Chemical weathering is the dissolution, carbonation, oxidation, or hydrolysis of rock and mineral by chemical means only, mostly from reactions with water or the acids contained in rainwater.Other materials are formed in the process. Warm, tropical climates are ideal environments for chemical weathering to take place as the chemical reactions are quickened by the bountiful rain and warm temperatures. Water, oxygen, carbon dioxide, living organisms, and acid precipitation.
water, air, chemicals, ect Acid rain contains sulfuric acid that can chemically weather rocks.
Water
No, Lichen is caused by clean air meaning where ever there is Lichen in that area the air is clean and not polluted.
The worst is air pollution and acid rain caused by air pollution. Water (rain) and wind also cause some weathering.
