fine grained rock will weaher faster thatn the course grained rock
What else can I help you with?
Why do smaller rocks weather faster than big rocks?
Small particles weather faster than larger particles because they have a smaller surface area. For example, pebbles weather faster than boulders because the have less areas to cover.
What is a landform that has small and large rocks?
Your question is OK but it is a bit too general to help you with an answer. For instance: A cliff will crumble to produce small and large rocks. A stony desert surface will have small and large rocks present on it. A river bed will have small and large rock in it. A moraine is comprised of small and large rocks. A beach is comprised of small and large rocks. And there are many many more possible answers. However, I feel that you want a specific answer and for this you would need to ask your question a bit more precisely.
What is after lava but before boulder?
After lava cools down and solidifies, it forms rocks. These rocks can then weather and erode into small fragments called boulders.
What are terms used to describe rocks with large vs small particles?
Rocks with large particles are called coarse-grained rocks, while rocks with small particles are referred to as fine-grained rocks. The term grain size refers to the size of the individual particles within a rock.
Are igneous rocks small or large crystals?
Igneous rocks can contain both small and large crystals, depending on how quickly they cooled from molten material. If they cooled slowly beneath the Earth's surface, they tend to form large crystals, as seen in rocks like granite. Conversely, if they cooled rapidly on the surface, such as in volcanic eruptions, they typically have small crystals or a glassy texture, as seen in rocks like basalt.
Why do smaller rocks weather faster than big rocks?
Small particles weather faster than larger particles because they have a smaller surface area. For example, pebbles weather faster than boulders because the have less areas to cover.
Why do Small rocks weather more quickly then large rocks?
Small rocks have a higher surface area to volume ratio, which exposes more of their surface to weathering processes like erosion and chemical reactions. This increased exposure makes them more prone to breaking down or weathering quickly compared to larger rocks.
What type of rock weathers most rapidly?
Small pieces of clay. The totality of the clay minerals present in small pieces of clay would be washed away more quickly than the totality of the clay minerals present in the large blocks of clay. Granite, large pieces or small, would weather more slowly than clay.
Why are the rocks in a large igneous intrusion coaser grained than the rocks in a small igneous intrusion at the same depth?
The minerals had longer to form from the hot magma than did the minerals in the small intrusion, which would have cooled much faster.

Do small or large hearts beat faster?
small
How do mountaintops weather faster than rocks at sea level?
Mountaintops generally experience more extreme weather conditions such as freezing temperatures, strong winds, and frequent precipitation which leads to faster weathering compared to rocks at sea level. Additionally, the thinner soil cover on mountaintops exposes rocks directly to the elements, accelerating the weathering process.
Why do larger rocks wear slower than smaller rocks?
When you think about it a larger rock has more surface area to be worn away think about it like if you have a large sweet or a small sweet,which will be gone faster if you suck/chew it,the small sweet because there is less of it
Does water evaporate faster from a large opening or a small opening?
Water evaporate faster from a large opening.
Which germinates faster a small lima bean or a large bean?
small
What are Igneous rocks that have large crystals and small crystals?
Igneous rocks with large crystals are called intrusive rocks, formed from magma cooling slowly beneath the Earth's surface, allowing for large crystals to form. Igneous rocks with small crystals are called extrusive rocks, formed from lava cooling quickly on the Earth's surface, resulting in small crystals due to rapid cooling.
Who would fall faster a man with a small parachute or a man with a large parachute?
The man with a small parachute will fall faster.
