What else can I help you with?
Can you give me some notes about weathering?
There are two types of weathering: chemical and physical. Chemical weathering is said to occur when the chemical compounds of rocks are changed. Physical weathering happens due to wind, rain, or other natural occurrences.
Where is chemical weathering?
Chemical weathering occurs when rock is broken down and dissolved through chemical reactions. It can happen anywhere, but is more common in areas with high moisture and temperature fluctuations, such as tropical regions and near coastlines.
Which substance is most resistance to weathering?
give example of a real life situation where a substance's resisrance to weathering might make a difference
What kind of weathering do lichens and mosses produce?
Answerr::::they probably produce acid things. chemically combined. maybe. actually idk? sorry. that was just a guess. best way to find the answer is to go to ask.com . but my name is Elizabeth C. improve this answer if you want to give me some more information thanks..
Contrast mechnaical and chemical weathering and give examples of each?
Mechanical weathering involves the physical breakdown of rocks into smaller pieces without changing their chemical composition, such as from frost wedging or abrasion. Chemical weathering, on the other hand, involves the alteration of rock minerals through chemical reactions, like dissolution by acidic rain or oxidation. An example of mechanical weathering is root wedging, where plant roots grow into cracks and break apart rocks, while an example of chemical weathering is the rusting of iron due to exposure to oxygen and water.
How do you think weathering forms hoodoos in Bryce Canyon Be sure to give examples of ways in which the canyons surface is torn down by physical and chemical weathering erosion and deposition?
Hoodoos in Bryce Canyon are formed through a combination of physical and chemical weathering processes. Physical weathering, such as frost wedging and abrasion, breaks down the rock into smaller pieces. Chemical weathering, like hydration and oxidation, alters the composition of the rock. Erosion by wind and water then further shapes the hoodoos, while deposition of sediment can lead to their formation in new areas.
What is a weathing rocks?
Weathering rocks refer to the process by which rocks are broken down and worn away by natural elements such as water, wind, and temperature changes. This process can involve physical (mechanical) weathering, chemical weathering, or biological weathering, ultimately leading to the disintegration of the rock into smaller particles and minerals.
Can you give one example of weathering?
One example of weathering is when rocks are broken down into smaller pieces by the process of frost action. Water seeps into cracks in rocks, freezes, expands, and eventually breaks the rock apart into smaller fragments.
What is chemical weathering Give an example.?
Chemical weathering is the process by which rocks and minerals are broken down and altered by chemical reactions. One example is the gradual dissolution of limestone due to carbonation, where rainwater combines with carbon dioxide to form a weak carbonic acid that reacts with the calcium carbonate in the rock. This reaction results in the formation of caves and sinkholes over time.
Give an example of how water can cause weathering?
The Grand Canyon would be the best example. (the water and carbon dioxide react to form a weak acid.)
Can you give me the word weathering in a sentence?
Weathering the storm is necessary to get through any hard situation.
How does being a combination of 2 different types of cells give lichens a survival advantage?
Being a combination of 2 different types of cells gives lichens a survival advantage because the lichens can develop into two different forms depending on the environmental influences.
