No because the statue is discolored from weathering.
Explanation:
Since the statue was already discolored, that means the substance has been acted upon by a process known as weathering .
Weathering is the breaking down of rocks or dissolving of rocks by the action of rain water, biological activities and temperatures changes. Weathering may be mechanical or chemical . Mechanical weathering live no changes in the overall chemical change of the weathered rock.
Chemical weathering usually occurs when rain water reacts with mineral constituent of rock to form a new minerals like clay and soluble salt. The Chemical changes can be more rapid if the rain water is slightly acidic. The rainwater in the presence of oxygen(oxidation), because of it acidity may have caused the discoloration of the granite rock. Rain water will likely promotes weathering not the other way round
The correct answer among the choices listed above is option D. The average kinetic energy of water molecules as water freeze <span>decreases as water releases energy to its surroundings. Energy is released as the molecules go into a more condensed phase which is the solid.</span>
