mechanical weathering

+++

I'd class it as chemical weathering because the action is dissolution by weakly-acid, and it works only in limestone, gypsum and dolomite - although dolomite deposits are not normally structurally disposed to cave development.

When rain soaks aways rock below the ground to form caves are called?

Right - rain absorns atmospheric CO2 to become slightly acid. When this water percolates through discontinuities in limestone, the rock is dissolved by this carbonic acid (an example of chemical weathering), and over time the conduits this creates enlarge and coalesce to form caves.

When rain soaks away rock below the ground to from caves what has occurred?

The process of rainwater dissolving and eroding soluble rock, such as limestone, to create underground caves is known as chemical weathering. This happens over a long period of time as water seeps through cracks in the rock, dissolving and carrying away minerals to form cave systems.
