How is surface area related to chemical weathering?
the smaller the particle size, the larger the surface area exposed to weathering for a given volume of material. The presence of joints therefore increases a rock's surface area. which then changes chemical composition
How is the surface area related to weathering?
Because it has more of an effect on smaller tinnier particles!
The surface area of rocks exposed to weathering is increased by?
Joints
What effect does mechanical weathering have on chemical weathering?
Mechanical (physical) weathering of rock opens up additional surface area to be attacked by chemical weathering.
How does the amount surface area affect the rate of weathering?
it will also be a weathering whe the claca goes to church
How is surface area related to area?
How does slope affect the rate of weathering

How does surface area affect the weathering rates?
A great surface area is a factor which favors weathering.
How is surface related to weathering?
How does slope affect the rate of weathering
How does the surface affect the rate of weathering?
more surface area= faster rate of weathering
What is the relationship between surface area and weathering rate?
The rate of weathering also depends on the surface area that is exposed. Mechanical weathering breaks rocks into smaller pieces. As the pieces get smaller, their surface area increases. When this happens, there is more total surface area available for chemical weathering. The result is that weathering has more of an effort on smaller particles.
How does surface area of a rock affect the rate of weathering?
The surface area of a rock has a big affect on the rate of weathering. The higher the surface area of the rock in proportion to its overall mass will result in a quicker rate of weathering of the rock.

Does the surface area affect weathering?
No, because the weathering makes it hotter
