How chemical weathering turns some sandstones into a pile of sand?
For chemical weathering to turn a sandstone into a pile of sand, the sandstone would have to have been cemented by a mineral that was easily attacked by weakly acidic rainfall, most likely calcite. The acidic rainfall would dissolve the cementing material through chemical reaction, leaving the chemically resistant sand grains behind.
