What are the most important factors that determine the rate of weathering rock?
The most important factors that determine the rate of weathering rock are the composition and fabric of the rocks and the physical and chemical environment to which the surface of the rock is exposed.
What are the most important factors in chemical weathering?
Erosion..... As wind, water, and glaciers move rock debris, they relentlessly disintegrate the rock further.
The most of important factors in determining the rate of weathering are what?
The most important factors that determine the rate at which weathering occurs are the type of rock and the climate. Rainfall affects the rate of weathering.
Is the most important agent of chemical weathering abrasion?
no
The most important agent of chemical weathering?
Water
The most important agent of chemical weathering is .?
water
Factors that affect rates of weathering (climate)?
Two key factors affect the rates of weathering rock type and climate. Climate: is the single, most important factor that affects the rate of weathering. Chemical reactions occurs faster at higher temperatures, Warm climates favor chemical weathering, cold climates favor mechanical weathering(principally freezing and thawing), more moisture, or precipitation present, the more noticeable weathering.
Is wind the most important part in chemical weathering?
No, it's not true.
What does temperature have to do with chemical weathering?
An increase in temperature will speed chemical reactions. Therefore, in an environment where all other factors are equal, the environment with the highest temperature will have the most rapid chemical weathering of rock.
What are the two most important forces in chemical weathering?
water and carbon dioxcide
What two climate factors are most important in the weathering process?
Climate & Moisture
What is it called when chemical reactions dissolve the minerals in rock or change them into different minerals?
It's called dissolution, a form of chemical weathering.
