Erosion is the moving of sediment from one place to another place. Deposition is the settling of particles suspended in air, ice, or water due to gravity or friction.

A rock's chemical makeup can be chaged by CHEMICALweathering. That is why its called CHEMICAL weathering.
False
The type of weathering that does not alter the chemical composition of the rock is called physical weathering. The acid weathering usually alter the chemical composition of a rock.
Chemical weathering
Weathering and erosion would alter the shape of a rock, as would the application of stress possibly combined with high(er) temperature conditions.
mechanical weathering breaks rocks into smaller pieces without changing their composition while on chemical weathering breaks down rocks by forming new minerals that are stable at the earth's surfaces.

mechanical weathering (by wind or water or perhaps tenacious plant roots or human activities)
Chemical Weathering
Chemical weathering
Mechanical weathering is a process which physically changes the appearance of a rock or structure. Chemical weathering is a process which changes the chemical composition of a rock or structure.

chemical. it changes the actual composition of the rock. :)
Metamorphism will alter the chemical molecules in a rock as it cools down, Otherwise, weathering will alter old molecules and create new ones.
any of the various weathering processes that cause physical disintegration of exposed rock without any change in the chemical composition of the rock
