Chemical weathering would be most effective in what climate?
Chemical weathering is the most effective in hot and dry climates. This is because this climate accelerates and intensifies the chemical weathering.
Where is chemical weathering?
Warm and wet, most chemical weathering because they have the most precipitation.
What type of climate does the greatest amount of chemical weathering of rock occur?
Hot, wet, tropical climates are most conducive to chemical weathering.
What is the most active agent of physical weathering?
human being.
What climates would chemical weathering most readily occur?
Lots of rain, wind, freeze/thaw cycles. Hot, humid climates with high rainfall promote chemical weathering.
What climate is the most conducive to rapid weathering?
The climate that is the most conducive to rapid weathering are tropical climates. They will have the fastest rate of weathering.
What would chemical weathering be most effective in?
Chemical weathering is the most effective in hot and dry climates. This is because this climate accelerates and intensifies the chemical weathering.
Chemical weathering would be most effective in what climate?
Chemical weathering is the most effective in hot and dry climates. This is because this climate accelerates and intensifies the chemical weathering.
What is the most important force of mechanical weathering in cool climates?
Freezing and thawing.
Does chemical weathering of soil occur most rapidly in regions which are warm and?
Wet. Hot and wet climates allow for the fastest weathering.
Where is chemical weathering?
Warm and wet, most chemical weathering because they have the most precipitation.
What type of climate does the greatest amount of chemical weathering of rock occur?
Hot, wet, tropical climates are most conducive to chemical weathering.
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.
What is the most active agent of physical weathering?
human being.
In whch area would weathering by frost wedging probably be most effective?
in moist, mid-latitude climates
What is the difference between physical and chemical weathering change?
chemical weathering change will most likely make a new substance
What climates would chemical weathering most readily occur?
Lots of rain, wind, freeze/thaw cycles. Hot, humid climates with high rainfall promote chemical weathering.
