Answer:
- 1. <u> d. hydrolysis </u> chemical reaction involving ions in water (OH⁻ and H⁺ )
- 2. <u> e. oxidation </u>chemical reaction in which minerals are weakened by oxygen
- 3. <u> b. abrasion </u> away or grinding by friction
- 4. <u> a. weathering </u> breakdown and change of rocks and minerals over time
- 5.<u> c. dissolution </u> process of dissolving
Explanation:
<u><em>a. Weathering </em></u>is due to the reaction of rocks and minerals with the air, water and organisms, which cause the rocks and minerals to breakdown and change. This, normally, is a slow process that involves chemical and physical changes.
<u><em>b. Abrasion </em></u>is the wear caused by the friction of the materials.
<u><em>c. Dissolution</em></u> is the process of dissolving a solute in a solvent. For instance, salt in water.
<u><em>d. Hydrolisys</em></u> is the chemical reaction of a substance with water, being the ions H⁺ or OH⁻ from water the agents responsible for the reaction.
<u><em>e. Oxidation</em></u> is the chemical reaction of an element with oxygen. In such reactions, the element transform into a compound that, commonly is weaker than the element. For instance, oxygen oxidates iron producing iron oxide (rust) which is weaker than iron.
