Some sedimentary rock, like limestone, is susceptible to chemical attack from acidic rainfall due to its carbonate chemistry. Other sedimentary rock, like shale, is prone to freeze/thaw cycles due to the easily penetrated fractured layering. Sedimentary rocks like sandstone can be poorly cemented or porous, allowing for attack and disintegration by freezing or moving water, or dissolution of the cementing minerals.
It is very soft and crumbly

Sedimentary rocks are more common at the surface of the Earth because they are formed by sedimentation of material at the Earth's surface and within bodies of water.
Because the fact that it's made of cake it moves very easily.
The soft greyish limestone that crumbles easily is called chalk.
Because when the weathered rock became eroded your mum couldnt resist masturbation, she masturbated till orgasm
Rainwater is naturally slightly acidic. The acid in rainwater reacts chemically with the calcium carbonate of limestone, dissolving it. The result is chemically weathered limestone, karst terrains, and cave structures.
I had the exact same question for one of my exams... I am fairly sure that the answer is: Granite and Limestone are two rocks that can be chemically weathered by natural rainwater. Hope I helped ! Alexx
it is water resistant, easy to cut/shape and pretty.

limestone and marble
Limestone and chalk get easily weathered by acid.
Relative to other rock types, limestone is on the 'easily weathered' end of the scale.

Limestone is the rock that is most easily broken down by carbonic acid. Marble is another rock that is susceptible to carbonic acid.
