Produce weak acid that weathers rock physical or chemical?
chemical
What is carbonic acid and how does it effect rock?
Carbonic acid is what forms when carbon dioxide dissolves in water. It is a weak acid but will over time, dissolve many rocks, especially carbonates such as limestone. To see what a very weak solution can do over millions of years one only has to visit Carlsbad Caverns or other karst caves found throughout the world.
Is plaque a strong or a weak acid?
Plaque itself is not and acid. But the bacteria in it produce lactic acid, which is a weak acid.
What are plant like organisms that grow on rocks and produce weak acids that chemicaly weathers rocks?
Lichens
What might a weak acid do to a rock?

What will produce the most hydronium ions in an aqueous solution?
Strong acid > Weak acid > weak base > strong Base. Will produce the most hydronium ions to the least hydronium ions.
Will a strong acid or weak acid produce the most hydroniums in an aqueos?
i think strong acids will produce the most
Do strong acid produce more hydronium ions than a weak acid?
Yes.
Acetic acid is what type of acid?
Acetic acid is a weak acid because it only ionises to a minimal extent in solution to produce hydrogen ions.CH3COOH CH3COO- + H+By definition, a weak acid is a substance which only ionises to a minimal extent in solution to produce hydrogen ions. A strong acid, is a substance which ionises completely in solution to produce hydrogen ions.
How a strong acid and a weak acid behave differently when each is dissolved in water?
The strong acid could cause an exothermic reaction (produce a lot of heat) Weak acid do the same, but do not produce such a strong exothermic reaction. Acid in Water might be a thrill Water in Acid could be rather unpleasant. Regards.
How can you say that rainwater is chemical weatherings?
Because rainwater dissolves carbon dioxide to produce carbonic acid - a weak acid - but over geological time it can dissolve various types of rock like limestone and thus weather it.
