What else can I help you with?
Are weathering and erosion the same process?
Both chemical and mechanical weathering breakdown a rock into particles, just in diffrent ways. Mechanical weathering is the physical weathering in which a rock is broken down into particles. Chemical weathering is the weathering in which rocks are disolved, decomposed , or loosend to change the minerals in the rock.
What type of weathering would sanding a rough board to make shelves be?
Mechanical weathering, as sanding physically breaks down the rough surfaces of the board without altering its chemical composition.
What would be most affected by weathering?
Rocks and minerals are most affected by weathering, as it breaks them down over time through processes like mechanical weathering (physical forces) and chemical weathering (chemical reactions). Weathering alters the appearance and composition of rocks, ultimately leading to their disintegration and decomposition.
What type of change would slow the chemical weathering of the soil?
Decreasing the surface area of the rock or increasing the pH level of the soil would slow the chemical weathering process. Additionally, reducing the presence of water or lowering the temperature can also slow down chemical weathering.
Why does weathering have to happen for erosion to happen?
Weathering is the process of rocks breaking down. Erosion is what moves the broken down rocks. There are four factors wind, moving water, wind, and gravity. Without weathering there would would be nothing for the Earth to erode.
What are the two causes of mechanical weathering?
If you want to draw something of mechanical weathering like me then i got the idea for you draw a rock with cracks and a concrete house with no roof at the top mechanical weathering
In what locations would you expect to find chemical weathering instead of mechanical weathering?
Chemical weathering is prevalent in tropical climates.
Does the Atacama Desert experience physical weathering or chemical weathering?
Since it rarely rains in the Atacama, nearly all weathering would be physical weathering caused by the wind.
What does weathering produce that is essential to life on earth?
Why is weathering important to life on land?
In which one of the area would you expect to find chemical weathering of a opposed to mechanical weathering?
Panama
What would not increase the effects of weathering and erosion?
trees and plants protect the earth from weathering and erosion
What would chemical weathering be most effective in?
Chemical weathering is the most effective in hot and dry climates. This is because this climate accelerates and intensifies the chemical weathering.
Are weathering and erosion the same process?
Both chemical and mechanical weathering breakdown a rock into particles, just in diffrent ways. Mechanical weathering is the physical weathering in which a rock is broken down into particles. Chemical weathering is the weathering in which rocks are disolved, decomposed , or loosend to change the minerals in the rock.

Is iron lawn furniture rusting outside mechanical or chemical weathering?
It would be a chemical change.
What type of weathering would sanding a rough board to make shelves be?
Mechanical weathering, as sanding physically breaks down the rough surfaces of the board without altering its chemical composition.
Would weathering affect a marble sculpture inside a museum?
If the marble sculpture is not in a climate controlled environment, it would be affected by a limited amount of weathering, yes.
