Where does weathering take place the most?
Limestone in a warm wet climate.
What are the factors of weathering?
physical weathering refers to weathering that occurs because of brute force, while chemical weathering refers to weathering that take place because change in the molecular composition of the substance
Why isn't there much chemical weathering in Antarctica?
Antartica is a very cold place. Because chemical activities are very slow under low temperature hence chemical weathering is also not much.
A type of chemical weathering in which minerals react with dissolved oxygen in water is known as?
Physical weathering is a type of weathering in which minerals react with dissolved oxygen in water. This causes chemical changes to take place in the minerals.
What climate is the most conductive to rapid weathering?
A warm, damp(moist),place with tropical weather
Does chemical weathering takes place fastest in the heat?
in a tropical rain forest, where the climate is hot and rainy
Is erosion chemical weathering?
No. Erosion usually involves the transportation of material from one place to another place. Chemical weathering involves the reaction of natural Earth materials with acidic fluids, causing dissolution.

How can climate rates affect chemical weathering?
Humidity and temperature are the keys to chemical weathering (and to answer a previous poster, chemical weathering is a natural process, though human activity can affect it. Chemical weathering needs water, to act as a solvent and to transport corrosive ions so chemical weathering in arid climates, and in arctic climates (where water is frozen, and so not available) have little if any chemical weathering. Chemical processes are also (mostly) accelerated by higher temperature so the high humidity and high temperature of the tropics is the place where chemical weathering predominates . Contribution of humic acids from soils is also important, and the high rate of growth of plants in tropical climates is also a factor. While the solution of Limestones by acidified water is the most commonly quoted example, many minerals break down chemically, feldspar breaking down to clay minerals would be another important example.
What is chemical weathering?
Chemical weathering is the phenomenon which contributes to the destroying of rocks with chemical agents; the chemicals may be natural or man made.Examples are water, carbon dioxide, organic acids, acid rains etc.
What do minerals in rocks combine with in the air that makes chemical weathering take place?
Water
How can chemical weathering take place below Earth's surface?
The most important weathering agent is water.Water dissolve soluble materials transforming rocks.
How do chemical and physical weathering work together to break down rock material?
well physical weathering is when it breaks down rocks and chemical weathering is when rocks are dissolved or loosened so i suppose that it would be that over a certain amount of time goes by, the more weathering occurs. i hope that answers your question! (:
