Halite will dissolve on pure water. Other rock types are not so soluble but may be chemically weathered by acid water (carbonic acid made from dissolved CO2 from the air) these would include limestone based rocks.

Acids or bases dissolve in water to produce H?
Acids.
Do acids dissolve many metals?
Yes
What acids dissolve lead?
Carbonated water can dissolve lead to some degree. - - - - - Nitric and acetic acids will dissolve lead. I think hydrofluoric acid will also dissolve it, but HF will dissolve a lot of things nothing else will.
What are the three uses of acids?
Acids can be used to determine the concentration of a given alkaline solution. Acids can be used to dissolve solids that do not dissolve in water. Abides are used to identify certain substances, such as in cation precipitation.
Do acids ionize or dissolve in water Can you explain please?
Acids ionize can dissolve in water it will lower the pH levels. This is does in many things to keep pH levels lower.
What agents of chemical weathering produces weak acids that dissolve rock?
Plant roots
What is an agent of chemical weathering that produces week acids that dissolve rock?
The answer to this question is plant roots
Which is an agent of chemical weathering that produces weak acids that dissolve rock?
By burrowing animals like Lichens.
Do acids dissolve in bases or do bases dissolve in acids?
They don't dissolve (or more properly, dissociate) completely in water, only partially. Acids or bases that dissociate completely are called strong acids or bases.
Acids or bases dissolve in water to produce H?
Acids.
Is it true or false that Chemical weathering occurs when the minerals in a rock react to water oxygen or acids in the environment?
yeah it is true and through that reaction it cause the rock to dissolve slowly
Why did the skittles not dissolve in bleach?
Because it has acids in it. Natural acids, but acids all the same.
What is plant acids?
carbonic acids dissolve rocks, and caves from underground.
How do plants dissolve rock?
Plants can weather rocks by having its roots grow, often squeezing the rock into so many little pieces, it can technically be considered "dissolved".
Why do solids dissolve faster in acid?
Not all solids dissolve faster in acids.
What do acids do in a solutions?
Acids dissolve entirely or partially into its ions when it is in aqueous medium.
Do acids dissolve many metals?
Yes
