How does an increase in surface area affect the rate of weathering?
If you do a chalk experiment, you will find out that increasing the surface area speeds the rate of weathering. The reaction/weathering will happen quicker. Most people are doing this in science. Your welcome
What do weathering erosion and deposition do to the earths surface?
Weathering breaks down rocks into smaller pieces, erosion transports these pieces to new locations by water, wind, or glaciers, and deposition drops these pieces in new locations, shaping the Earth's surface over time.
How do Haiti earthquakes happen?
they just happen earthquakes are caused from the plates under earths surface moving
Why does chemical weathering happen more when its hot?
why does chemical weathering happen?
Why does most chemical weathering happen only on the outer surface of a rock?
Most chemical weathering occurs on the outer surface of a rock because that area is in direct contact with the atmosphere, water, and other substances that promote chemical reactions. As these external agents penetrate the rock, they react with its minerals and cause them to break down, leading to weathering. Additionally, weathering tends to be more pronounced on the outer surface of a rock because it has more exposure to environmental factors compared to the interior.
How does air effect weathering?
Air affects weathering through processes such as oxidation, hydration, and carbonation. Oxygen in the air can react with minerals, weakening rocks and causing them to break down over time. Moisture in the air can also contribute to weathering by facilitating chemical reactions that break down rocks. Additionally, air pollution can accelerate weathering processes by introducing acidic components that enhance the breakdown of rocks and minerals.
What would happen if carbon dioxide methane and water vapor were not in the atmosphere?
The Earths surface would be much colder than it is.
Do weathering and erosion happen at the same time?
Weathering and erosion are related processes that often occur simultaneously. Weathering breaks down rocks into smaller pieces, while erosion transports these pieces to a different location. Both processes work together to shape the Earth's surface over time.
What would happen to the International Space Station if it were not moving sideways?
Earth's Gravity would pull it straight down to earths surface.
What happens along a fault beneath earths surface when earthquakes happen?
If the fault is responsible for the earthquake, there will be movement (displacement) along the fault.
Why does weathering and erosion happen?
Weathering and erosion happen due to the processes of physical, chemical, and biological breakdown of rocks and soil. Weathering breaks down rocks through exposure to elements like water, wind, and temperature changes, while erosion involves the transport of the weathered material by forces like water, wind, and glaciers. These processes shape the Earth's surface over time by wearing down and moving particles from one place to another.
What type of weathering does not happen in the desert?
Mechanical and chemical weathering both occur.
