Chemical sediments, when conditions are right, precipitates to form chemical sediments. This precipitation occurs one of two ways, by physical processes, or by biochemical origin.

What is the chemical sediments?
Chemical sediments are mineral precipitate :)
What must happen to metamorphic rock to become sedimentary rock?
The rock is eroded or weathered away into sediments. The sediments settle and through compaction , the sediments are pushed together to form a sediment. Short Answer: It must be broken down into a sediment.
How does carbon dioxide cause chemical weathering?
It causes any mineral to crack or leave little sediments of the remaining rock
Lichen produce acids that can slowly break down rock in the process of?
Lichen produce acids that can slowly break down rock in the process of chemical weathering. Acids in water and air also produce chemical weathering.
What is the movement of rock particles by wind water ice or gravity?
Erosion. Weathering is the physical and chemical breakdown of rock. Erosion is the removal of of weathered sediments. Transport is the movement of weathered sediments (say in suspension in river water) during the erosion process. Deposition is the laying down of the transported sediments in a new location.
What is one product of chemical weathering?
the product of weathering issand clay and rock fragments
What process produce clastic sediments?
The rock cycle
What is the chemical sediments?
Chemical sediments are mineral precipitate :)
How do sediments become sedimentary rocks?
When sedimentary rock is weathered in nature by chemical or mechanical means, the particles that are produced can be eroded and deposited, becoming sediments.
Produce weak acid that weathers rock physical or chemical?
chemical
What must happen to metamorphic rock to become sedimentary rock?

Does chemical weathering produce rock particles from the same rock they came from?
yes it doexs

Transport is the movement of weathered sediments (say in suspension in river water) during the erosion process. Deposition is the laying down of the transported sediments in a new location.
What type of rock is clastic and non-clastic?
Clastic sediments are sediments that have particles or pieces of rock (clasts) in them. The clasts can be of igneous, metamorphic or sedimentary rock. Non-clastic sediments are made up of dissolved minerals or organic matter.
How does carbon dioxide cause chemical weathering?
It causes any mineral to crack or leave little sediments of the remaining rock
Lichen produce acids that can slowly break down rock in the process of?
Lichen produce acids that can slowly break down rock in the process of chemical weathering. Acids in water and air also produce chemical weathering.
What kind of rock is formed form sediments?
Sedimentary rock.
