Answer: Incomplete
"Check all that apply. porosity, moisture, temperature, mineral, softness, or ease of dissolving"
<em>From the options, the three answers are </em><u><em>mineral composition,</em></u><em> </em><u><em>ease of dissolving</em></u><em> and p</em>
Explanation:
Weathering is the phenomenon in which surface of rocks are broken down and leaches or washed away.
The factors that affect the rock type and rate of weathering of said rock include:
- Composition: this translates to the <u>mineral composition </u>in the rock and how susceptible to chemical weathering reaction
- Surface area and porosity: Surface <u>porosity </u>determines how easily the rock can be leached by wind or rain.
- Climate: Mechanical weathering due to extreme climate change can cause freezing and thawing of the rocks, thereby enhancing disintegration of the rock. This is determined by the <u>ease of dissolving </u>of the rock.

Making rough estimate of physical quantities is useful because it allow us to have an idea of how big or small a quantity is, it gives us the near result of the real quantity a matter contains. The approximate quantity obtained will give us information about the size of the quantity.
