The single most important chemical weathering agent is Carbon dioxide.
Weathering refers to the process that change the physical and chemical character of rock at or near the surface. Weathering has a dramatic impact on the composition of Earth's atmosphere. Chemical weathering removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, allowing it to be transformed into limestone and stored in the crust. Without chemical weathering, the elevated levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere would have long made Earth too hot to sustain life.

siniylev [52]

Answer:

A. The increase in the mass of the magnesium oxide was due to oxygen atoms in the air.

Explanation:

Burning occurs in the presence of oxygen. A chemical combination occurs between Mg and O in that the atom of magnesium attracts one another.

          Mg + O₂ → MgO

Starting with the magnesium, on reacting with oxygen a new compound forms. This is why there is mass increase in the MgO compared to the starting material.
