What are two things that chemical weathering?
Chemical weathering can break down rocks by processes such as oxidation, where minerals react with oxygen to form new compounds, and hydrolysis, where minerals react with water to form different substances. These processes can lead to the breakdown of rocks and the formation of new minerals.
What are two chemical formulas for alkali?
CaCO
What are two ways that chemical rocks form?
crystalized and minerals
What happens when two different kind of minerals mix?
When two different kinds of minerals mix, they may form new minerals through a process called solid-state reaction. This can lead to the creation of mineral solid solutions or intergrowths, depending on the proportions and chemical properties of the original minerals. Additionally, sometimes the combination of different minerals can result in the formation of mineral ores.
What two chemical constituents cannot form by chemical weathering of the feldspar minerals?
Quartz and clay minerals cannot form by chemical weathering of feldspar minerals. Quartz is already a stable mineral and does not transform during weathering, while clay minerals originate from the breakdown of feldspar.
Name two properties of minerals that depend on chemical bonds?
Two properties of minerals that depend on chemical bonds are hardness, which is determined by the strength of the bonds holding the mineral's atoms together, and cleavage, which is the way a mineral breaks along planes of weakness in its atomic structure.
What are minerals considered to be?
A mineral has a fixed chemical composition, and crystal format. Sometimes we may have two minerals with the same chemical formula - e.g. calcite and aragonite, but differ in crystallization.
What kind of minerals you find on a rocky mountain?
Sorry but I can find two lead and gold
What are two agents of chemical weathering?
Two agents of chemical weathering are water and acidic compounds. Water can dissolve minerals and chemically react with rocks, while acidic compounds such as carbonic acid can break down minerals in rocks.
Are most minerals compounds?
A lot are, but a lot are chemical elements, too. I would guess that more minerals are compounded of two or more elements.
Which best describes the difference between a rock and a mineral?
Minerals have an unique chemical composition, and Rocks are made up of two or more minerals.
What is the chemical formulas of iron chlorides?
Two iron chlorides are known: FeCl2 and FeCl3.
