These three (3) chemical reactions include Hydrolysis, Carbonation, and Oxidation. 

• Hydrolysis is a chemical reaction caused by the water in which water responds with the rock and changes the size and chemical arrangement of the minerals that reduces opposition to weathering. 

• Carbonation is an involvement of water with carbon dioxide to create carbonic acid. It appears when the rock minerals respond with fragile carbonic acid made when water associates with carbon dioxide in the air that deeds on the rock by breaching and disbanding the mineral substances. 

• Oxidation is recognized as rusting, a procedure whereby the rock minerals misplace one or more ions or atoms in the occurrence of oxygen. Once minerals in the rock rust it will develop less opposition to weathering. The oxygen associates with other constituents via oxidation method given that rise to ion or atom lose.
