Physical weathering and chemical weathering both break down rocks.
because it is physical and chemical at the same time
Both chemical and mechanical weathering breakdown a rock into particles, just in diffrent ways. Mechanical weathering is the physical weathering in which a rock is broken down into particles. Chemical weathering is the weathering in which rocks are disolved, decomposed , or loosend to change the minerals in the rock.
The agents of "weathering" is both the agents of the physical and the chemical weathering combined. Agents of physical weathering can be: wind, water, sun, ice, gravity, rain, etc. Agents of chemical weathering may be: acid from roots, acid rain, oxidation/reduction (rusting), carbon dioxide, etc. They are the same because both physical and chemical weathering lead to erosion of rocks. In other words, both help rocks break down into smaller pieces. They are also the same because both physical and chemical weathering can occur with the same agent. For example, TREES. The roots of trees release acid to break down rocks (chemical weathering) while the roots of trees also grow into the cracks of rocks and help break them apart (physical weathering). Note that weathering is just the beginning process of erosion. Erosion is when stuff actually breaks down into smaller pieces.
Chemical weathering rocks may decompose or dissolve and at the same time change in compostion through a certain chemical process to form residuals materials. Mechanical weathering happens when rocks disintegrate or breaks down into smaller pieces through physical forces. (rain, snow, freezing)

Chemical weathering is which makes new substances, whereas physical weathering is where rock is changed into smaller pieces of the same substance.
No weathering is not the same as physical weathering.Kayla

Yes, chemical weathering involve chemical reactions.
Chemical weathering rocks may decompose or dissolve and at the same time change in compostion through a certain chemical process to form residuals materials. Mechanical weathering happens when rocks disintegrate or breaks down into smaller pieces through physical forces. (rain, snow, freezing)
Mechanical weathering provides fresh surfaces for attack by chemical processes, and chemical weathering weakens the rock so that it is more susceptible to mechanical weathering.
Yes they are the same.
Physical property the physical state of the water is changed from ice to water not the chemical state i.e it is still h2o
Solubility is a physical property because it is related to a physical, not a chemical, change. When something dissolves, it does not change chemically. It is still the same compound/molecule, etc. when it was not dissolved in the solvent.
