The Rock Cycle

The Law of Conservation According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, matter cannot be created or destroyed. It only changes form. The same is true about rocks!

The Rock Cycle

Weathering A natural process that causes rocks to change, break down, and make crumble Two different types of weathering

Physical Weathering Break rocks into smaller pieces

Chemical Weathering Changing material into a new substance

Erosion The wearing away and removal of material Main Agent of Erosion is: Water (H2O)
