chemical weathering.
Ice freezing in a crack of a rock is considered weathering.
The crack would expand because the water in the rock, as it freezes, expands.
The crack get bigger and bigger
The water would expand as it freezes, causing the crack to widen. This repeated process of water entering the crack, freezing, and expanding, would eventually lead to the rock fracturing or breaking apart.
chemical weathering.
Weathering processes, such as freezing and thawing, and chemical weathering from exposure to water and acids are the most likely causes for rock to crack and crumble. Over time, the expansion and contraction of these forces weaken the rock structure, leading to eventual breakage.
If there is movement of rock along this crack, then it is called a fault.
Getting very hot during the day, and very cold during the night, will help to crack rocks. As will rainwater seeping into minute cracks, and then expanding when turned into ice during a frosty night.
