I think the correct answer is electrons. All chemical reactions are dependent on the transfer of electrons. Other subatomic particles are located in the innermost portion of an atom and are bonded strongly with each other.
Explanation:
reaction cannot be both endothermic and exothermic at the same time.
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.
