What chemical weathering process occurs when chemicals combine with water in a chemical reaction to change the physical properties of the rock?
What else can I help you with?
What are some differences of physical weathering and chemical weathering?
Physical weathering is due to: rocks hitting other rocks causing them to break up from the action of frost and ice the action of wind or waves or running water the action of plants. Chemical weathering changes the composition of the rock and is due to: water dissolving minerals in the rock oxidation of metals in the rock
What the differences between physical weathering and surface waters?
physical weathering is weathering that you can reverse and chemical weathering is where you can' reverse it.
What are non-examples of mechanical weathering?
Mechanical weathering is physical changes that break down and/or cracks the rock, such as ice wedging, temperature changes, root growth, or animal activity. Chemical weathering is a chemical change that changes the chemicals of the substance to make a new one. Examples of chemical weathering include oxidation, acid rain, hydration, and carbonation.
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.
How can a river both cause a chemical and physical weathering?
Water is a major component in weathering process. Its essential for all forms of disintegration either Mechanical/Physical, Biological or Chemical. Water aids in physical weathering through alternating wetting and drying of rocks thereby leading to breaking down of the rock. It helps in chemical weathering through dissolution of chemicals in rocks such as limestone. Water is a cause of both chemical and physical weathering.
Are chemicals from plants physical or chemical weathering?
Is chemicals from plants chemical weathering or physical weathering
What are some differences of physical weathering and chemical weathering?

Chemical weathering changes the composition of the rock and is due to: water dissolving minerals in the rock oxidation of metals in the rock
Is chemicals from plants chemical and physical weathering?
Chemicals from plants can contribute to chemical weathering through processes like root exudation, where plant roots release substances that can break down minerals in rocks. Physical weathering, however, involves the mechanical breakdown of rocks without changes in chemical composition and is more likely due to factors like temperature changes and weathering.
Is abrasion physical weathering or chemical weathering?
it is physical weathering
Does physical weathering increase chemical weathering?
Physical weathering breaks big rocks into little rocks and increases the surface area exposed to chemical agents, such as carbonic acid. The more the surface area, the faster the weathering.
How does weathering releases phosphate from rock?
Chemical weathering and physical weathering are two types of weathering involved in the phosphorus cycle. In chemical weathering, a chemical reaction causes phosphate rocks to break down and release phosphate into soil. Acid precipitation and the chemicals released by lichen can cause the chemical weathering. In physical weathering, processes like wind, rain, and freezing releases particles of rock and phosphate into the soil.
Difference bewteen physical property and chemical property?
a physical properties are observable, while a chemical property is known when mixed with chemicals
What are the 2 main types of weathering?
The two main types of weathering are mechanical (physical) weathering and chemical weathering. Mechanical weathering involves the physical breakdown of rocks into smaller pieces, while chemical weathering involves the alteration of rock materials through chemical reactions.
Is it true or false that Physical weathering is the type of weathering in which only a material's size or shape is changed.?
False. Physical weathering is the type of weathering in which the physical properties of a material are altered without changing its chemical composition. This can include changes in size, shape, or texture.
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.
Is fog a physical or chemical weathering?
Fog is a chemical weathering.
Is a road way is a physical weathering or chemical weathering?
chemical
