Answer:

c

Explanation:

Weathering is the breaking down or dissolving of rocks and minerals on Earths surface. Once a rock has been broken down, a process called erosion transports the bits of rock and minerals away. Water, acids, salt, plants, animals, and changes in temperature are all agents of weathering and erosion.

Answer:

becomes runoff and finds its way back to the ocean

Explanation:

Precipitation refers to rainfall that reaches the earth.

Most of the rainfall that reaches the earth becomes runoff and finds its way back to the ocean.

When the rain falls on earth, some evaporates, some enters into the ground while some runs off into rivers and streams. Almost all of the rain water flows into the oceans or other bodies of water.

Hence, most of the rainfall that reaches the earth becomes runoff and finds its way back to the ocean

5. Why are lonic compounds good conductors of electricity?
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

The options are unclear, however, the correct option is:

Aqueous solutions of ionic compounds cause to dissociate, hence, ions are free to conduct electricity

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are compounds formed from ions (charged atoms). For example, NaCl is an ionic compound from the following ions; Na+ (cation) and Cl- (anion). One characteristics of ionic compounds is their ability to dissociate into the ions that form them when in an aqueous solution i.e. NaCl will dissociate into Na+ and Cl- when in an aqueous solution.

These disssociated ions are free to conduct electricity, hence, making ionic compounds good conductors of electricity.

Explain the process of groundwater
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Limestone is easily eroded from above and below.

Explanation:

The Florida bedrock is largely made of limestone. Because limestone is a rock that is easily eroded, the landscape of a great part of Florida is classified as karstic.

Karstic landscapes are dotted by sinkholes, underground rivers, caves, and springs. The more acidic the groundwater or rainwater, the faster and more easily the limestone will succumb to erosion.

In this way, underground rivers, streams, runoff, rain, and underground water pooled in caves have all carved out gaps and caverns in the weak limestone bedrock.
