Water can easily get into the rock and when the water freezes it expands cracking the rock so more water can enter and break up the rock.
because of the contents in it
OH and ILH
as water seeps through the spaces in the rock , it removes dissolved material formed by weathering.
Water can get into it.
Water can get into the rock.
because i dont no good answer right
A rock that has high porosity is not permeable if the pores or fractures are not connected. The larger and better shorted the particles are, the more permeable the rock or sediment tends to be. Because of this characteristic composition, clay is essentially impermeable, which means that water cannot flow through it.
a rock that is full of tiny, connected air spaces is PERMEABLE
Rocks and Minerals can be identified and distinguished by their distinctive texture, structure, and chemistry.
coal
I believe you're referring to sulfuric acid, which is in acid rain.
idk... i need to know too. someone please help. my guess is no.... because permeable rock is rock that can be easily passed through.
yo mam
Yes, the minerals that make upa rock partially determine how fast it weathers. But while there is some truth in this statement, the answer has to be false because the environment the rock surface is exposed to also determines how fast it weathers.
Oxygen in the air and acids.
Sedimentary rock weathers the fastest and easiest
rock type
Aquifers are permeable layers of rock that have non permeable layers of rock under them so water remains in the permeable layers
igneous rock
Pumice and obsidian are both forms of volcanic glass, which weathers away fairly easily.
PERMEABLE means:that a material is full of tiny, connected air spaces that allow water to seep through it. The spaces increase the suface area of the rock. ANSWER:because since water goes through the air pockets it erodes the rock quicker than less permeable rock because it has less air pockets.
Porous rocks weather more easily for different reasons:Many porous rocks are made from softer materials, thus being more easily weatheredPorous rocks, by definition, tend to have lots of spaces in them where, on a microscopic or even macroscopic level, areas of the rock are not connected on all sides to other rock. As a result, there is less resistance to fracture or other separationsWater can infiltrate porous rocks and dissolve from the inside as well as the outside - even if only very slowlyBecause water can infiltrate porous rocks, they can be fractured from within when the water freezes
Because there is acid in this precipitation than normal precipitation so it weathers the Rock alot faster because acid is very strong
