How does mechanical weathering add to the effectiveness of chemical weathering?
Mechanical weathering breaks down rocks physically into smaller pieces, which increases the surface area available for chemical weathering to act upon. This allows chemical processes, such as oxidation or hydration, to more easily penetrate the rock, accelerating the breakdown of minerals through chemical means.
Does moss damage concrete?
Living organisms may contribute to mechanical weathering (as well as chemical weathering, see 'biological' weathering below). Lichens and mosses grow on essentially bare rock surfaces and create a more humid chemical microenvironment. The attachment of these organisms to the rock surface enhances physical as well as chemical breakdown of the surface microlayer of the rock.
What chemical do you add when free chlorine is low?
You can add chlorine-based chemicals such as chlorine granules or liquid chlorine to increase free chlorine levels in the pool. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and allow time for the chemical to circulate before testing the water again.
What is an example of mechanical weathering?
A rock rolling down a hill? The rock can collect materials from the hill and add some materials onto the hill at the same time. If it hits another rock and 'jumps' into the air, it can be broken when it lands.
Can you add chlorine and muriatic acid at the same time?
NO!!! Never add them at the same time, together they make a toxic gas A general rule when adding chemicals to pools is to wait at least an hour before adding any other chemical to the pool. Remember Muriatic acid is very dangerous so be careful bad for lungs, burn skin, blind eyes.

Does sunshine cause weathering?
Yes, sunshine can add to the effects of weathering.
What are the 2 process that add salt to seawater?
The two processes that add salt to seawater are the chemical weathering of rocks on land, which release minerals into rivers that eventually flow into the ocean, and the evaporation of water from the ocean surface, leaving behind salt in the form of halite (table salt).
What do you get when you add potential energy to kinetic energy?
mechanical energy
how to add chemical compounds?
chemical bonds form between their atoms.
Do you add or subtract to calcuate mechanical energy?
To calculate mechanical energy, you typically add the kinetic energy (0.5 * mass * velocity^2) to the potential energy (mass * gravity * height). The total mechanical energy is the sum of these two forms of energy.
How can you change water chemically?
add a chemical.
Will it be chemical change if acid add to the water?
NO
What do you add to speed up a chemical reaction?
You can add more of a solid reactant, you can add heat, or you can add a catalyst.
What steps in a procedure would not need to have the flame icon?
. Add chemical A to chemical B and stir.
What is staged synthesis?
Take a chemical and add more chemicals to it in stages to make a new chemical
How do you increase the speed of a chemical reacton?
Add a catalyst.
