Rust is chemical weathering. It occurs when oxygen from the air reacts with a metal, typically with iron. This chemical reaction is called oxydation, and the product is what gives rust its reddish color.
Oxidation in chemical weathering causes minerals containing iron to rust. This process breaks down the minerals and can weaken the rock structure, leading to eventual disintegration.
well it is very hard to break up bedrock, but the main process that does is weathering. You have two seperit kinds of weathering. The first one is Chemical Weathering. Chemical weathering is when weathering effects the exterior. two examples are rust and leaching. The second type of weathering is Mechanical Weathering. This effects rocks physically. two examples are abrasion and erosion.SO THE MAIN ANSWER WOULD BE WEATHERING. THE TYPE OF WEATHERING, MECHANICAL WEATHERING, THE PROCESS, ABRASION (well there is more than that but that is the most common situation)
differential weathering
Acid rain
both chemical and biological weathering
It is called Oxydation
rain and any type of precipitation
This is an oxidation reaction.
The type of weathering commonly known as rusting is chemical weathering. It occurs when metals, such as iron, are exposed to oxygen and water, causing a chemical reaction that forms rust. Rust weakens the metal structure over time, leading to its deterioration.
oxidation causes iron to change color. oxidation causes rust.
One type of chemical weathering is oxidation, where minerals containing iron are exposed to oxygen and water, causing the iron to rust and the rock to weaken and break down.
The result of the rust colored tint of desert landscapes are to show chemical weathering. This is shown on a map.
Physical Weathering (aka Mechanical Weathering) is the main type of weathering in deserts.

Rustoleum makes products that are designed to protect surfaces and materials from elements such as rust, dirt and weathering. You can get more information at the Rustoleum website.

is because they react to the iron and form rust
