Answer:

Hello! Your answer is Weathering.

Vikentia [17]3 years ago

The process by which rocks are broken down to form soil is called weathering. It is divided into 3 types, physical, chemical and biological weathering.
Physical weathering is the process by which rocks are broken down as a result of physical agitations. It is also called mechanical weathering and during this process the chemical nature of the rock is not affected. Biological weathering has to do with the weakening of rocks and their eventual disintegration as a result of plants and animals activities. Chemical weathering refers to the disintegration of the rock particles as a result of chemical reactions.

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

The terms used to describe the given process in <em><u>Chemical weathering.</u></em>

Explanation:

Weathering of rock is defined as breaking down of the rock into small pieces.

There are two types pf weathering :

Mechanical weathering : This weathering is due to change in physical parameters : temperature change, pressure change etc.

For example : When water soaked up in cracks or crevices of rocks freezes it expands and physically breaks the rock.

Chemical weathering : This weathering is decomposition of rocks due to action of chemicals.This type of weathering also changes chemical composition of rocks.

For example : when gases like carbon dioxide, sulfur oxide get dissolves in water present in rock to form weak acid which ease up the dissolving of rock in that weak acid.
