What two chemical constituents cannot form by chemical weathering of the feldspar minerals?
Quartz and clay minerals cannot form by chemical weathering of feldspar minerals. Quartz is already a stable mineral and does not transform during weathering, while clay minerals originate from the breakdown of feldspar.
What type of chemical weathering is associated with the formation of stalagities and stalagmites?
The type of chemical weathering associated with the formation of stalagmites and stalactites is called carbonation. This process occurs when rainwater combines with carbon dioxide in the air and forms a weak carbonic acid, which dissolves limestone and creates the structures in caves over time.
Which chemical is related to chemical weathering?
Carbon dioxide is related to chemical weathering as it combines with water to form carbonic acid, which can dissolve minerals in rocks over time. This chemical reaction gradually breaks down the rocks and contributes to the process of weathering.
Is rusting chemical or mechanical weathering?
Rusting is a form of chemical weathering. It occurs when iron or steel objects are exposed to oxygen and moisture, leading to the formation of iron oxide (rust) through a chemical reaction.
Which is a cause of chemical weathering?
When the weather damages things such as acid rain, it is weathering. Acid Rain is chemical weathering because it is rain with the chemical acid in it and it can damage things like buildings, rocks and other objects. Other types of weathering are Physical Biological
What had acid rain to to do with chemical weathering?
The effect of acid rains is a form of chemical weathering.
Are speleothems mechanical or chemical weathering?
Speleothems are formed as a result of chemical weathering processes. Groundwater percolating through limestone or other soluble rocks dissolves minerals, and when the water reaches the cave, these minerals are deposited as speleothems such as stalactites and stalagmites through precipitation.
How does chemical weathering form of?
maybe i is form out of oxygen
Is bird poop chemical weathering?
Yes. A form of biochemical weathering.
Is root wedging a form of chemical weathering?
Root wedging is a form of mechanical weathering, not chemical weathering. It occurs when tree roots grow into cracks in rocks, applying pressure that causes the rock to break apart over time. Chemical weathering involves the breakdown of rocks through chemical reactions, such as oxidation or dissolving.
What may dissolved limestone form?
Dissolved limestone can form stalactites and stalagmites in caves through the process of precipitation when the calcium in the limestone re-crystallizes. It can also contribute to the formation of karst landscapes such as sinkholes and caves due to the chemical weathering of the rock.
Form of weathering that involves chemicals?
I think that is chemical. :)
What are the differences between physical and chemical weathering and say what type acid rain is?
Physical weathering involves the breakdown of rocks into smaller pieces without changing their chemical composition, while chemical weathering involves the alteration of rocks through chemical reactions. Acid rain is a form of chemical weathering, as it can react with rocks and minerals to degrade them.
Would minerals dissolving in water be a form of mechanical or chemical weathering?
Chemical.
How can chemical wethering form a cavern?
Chemical weathering can form a cavern by infiltrating pore spaces in limestone.
Which is a tupe of chemical weathering?
Hydrolysis is a type of chemical weathering that occurs when minerals in rocks react with water to form new minerals.
The leaching of rock by acid precipitation is a form of?
Chemical Weathering
