All weathering is slow because rocks are pretty solid.
What else can I help you with?
What happens when a rock Is chemical weathering?
Chemical weathering of rock occurs when minerals within the rock are broken down or altered through chemical reactions. This can lead to the formation of new minerals, decomposition of the rock's structure, or dissolution of the rock into smaller particles. Over time, chemical weathering can weaken the rock and cause it to disintegrate.
Is a type of weathering caused by chemical reaction with water?
yes, liquid water is a unit of chemical weathering. ice is a unit of physical weathering.
What is another word for chemical weathering?
Another word for chemical weathering is chemical erosion.
Are stalactites a form chemical weathering?
No, stalactites are not a form of chemical weathering. Stalactites are formations that result from the deposition of minerals carried by water dripping from the ceiling of a cave, while chemical weathering involves the breakdown of rocks through chemical processes like oxidation or dissolution.
How does chemical weathering on rocks happens?
Chemical reactions break down the bonds holding the rocks together, causing them to fall apart, forming smaller and smaller pieces. Chemical weathering is much more common in locations where there is a lot of water. This is because water is important to many of the chemical reactions that can take place. Warmer temperatures are also more friendly to chemical weathering.
What type of weathering never happens in warm climates?
Chemical Weathering
Is hydration an example of weathering?
A type of Chemical weathering that happens when water interacts with minerals.
Can you give me some notes about weathering?
There are two types of weathering: chemical and physical. Chemical weathering is said to occur when the chemical compounds of rocks are changed. Physical weathering happens due to wind, rain, or other natural occurrences.
Does chemical weathering happen fast?
Yes, it happens very fast.
How is weathering different than erosion?
weathering is part of erosion there are two types of erosion mechanical and chemical. chemical refers to elements such as oxygen and Iron which cause a chemical change such as rust and oxidation mechanical weathering is when rocks or materials are separated by water mass movement etc
Chemical weathering happens more slowly in what areas?
Chemical weathering happens more slowly in dry and cold areas because the presence of water and warm temperatures accelerate the chemical reactions that break down rocks. In regions with less moisture and lower temperatures, chemical weathering processes are typically slower.
Does chemical weathering happen very fast?
No, it happens over quite a long time.
How are weathering and chemical weathering related?
mechanical weathering and chemical weathering are related because their both are types of weathering
Why chemical weathering would not be rapid in antarctica?
Because it's cold and dry and chemical weathering usually happens in warm and wet areas like the tropical areas
Is acid chemical weathering or mechanical weathering?
chemical
What is aonther word for chemical weathering?
chemical weathering
What is different between physical weathering and chemical weathering?
Physical weathering is breaking down of rocks by weather that does not change their chemical components. Chemical weathering is weathering that breaks rocks down by a chemical change.
