What does acid rain o to rocks?
Acid rain helps erode, etch, and decompose rocks.
Which types of rocks neutralize acid rain?
basic rocks (as a base an acid) such as limestone
What kind of rocks are most affected by acid rain?
Rocks containing calcium carbonate (Ca CO3), example limestone, tend to weather easily. The acid rain reacts with this component in sedimentary rocks and weaken the bonds between its constituent minerals, making it more susceptible to breaking away from the original portion.
How does acid rain weather rocks?
Acid rain is corrosive and reacts with the minerals in the rocks, sometimes dissolving them and sometimes making them change into a gas. This weakens the rocks which then fall apart and get washed away.
