What causes more erosion than any other form of weathering?
erosion is when the ground erodes and moves sediment from one place to another. Weathering is when like waves break off rocks from a cliff or something. There kinda alike but they are different too
How are the types of weathering alike?
They all end up creating smaller rock particles.
What are two ways in which minerals can form alike and how they are different?
which minerals can form are alike and how they are different
How is an element and a chemical symbol alike?
A chemical symbol represents an element. For example, the chemical symbol H represents the element hydrogen.
How are soils alike and different?
They hold different nutrients. They hold water and help plants live. They are shelter for many insects.
How are chemical and physical weathering different and alike?

How is chemical and physical weathering alike?
I guess they both created to world as we know it today and helped create new rocks and made new soil from smaller rocks and sediments.
How are mechanical weathering and chemical weathering alike and different?
The differences are that mechanical weathering is the breaking of rock into smaller pieces by forces due to gravity, corrosion, freezing (dilatation of the material) and melting of water, plant roots, or other forces. (The mechanical does it physically)So then chemical weathering is the changing of materials in a rock by chemical processes, for example acidic rains action, solubility of some components, chemical reactions, thermal decomposition, etc.
How are physical changes alike?
all physical changes are alike in which all of them changing without changing in chemical makeup of the matter we have
How are all physical changes alike?
all physical changes are alike in which all of them changing without changing in chemical makeup of the matter we have
How are 4 types of chemical reactions alike and different?

Is it true that a physical change and a chemical are exactly alike?
Not true, they are not similar; a chemical change is a change in the molecule, the physical change is not.
How are physical properties of paper and aluminum foil alike and different?
different they are made from different things
How are chemical weathering and mechanical weathering alike?
Mechanical weathering results from abrasion of a surface chipping away at the surface and removing small pieces. Chemical weather results from chemical reactions occurring between the material of the surface and the surrounding environment. In both cases small amounts of material may be removed gradually through the weathering process. Because a surface may not be homogeneous, some parts will be more resistant to mechanical weathering than others, resulting in pitting where the material is weaker. Likewise, a heterogeneous surface will exhibit pitting from chemical weathering as the environment preferentially attacks the portions of the surface that are richer in the more reactive materials - again resulting in pitting.
How are two atoms of the same elements alike?
They have all the chemical, physical, nuclear properties identical. This is not the case for isotopes.
How are isotopes alike?
Isotopes are exactly same with respect to all the chemical properties but they differ with respect to physical properties.
