Weathering 1.What is chemical weathering? 2.What are the agents of chemical weathering?

1. Chemical weathering is the process of breaking down rocks by chemical reactions and form a new substance

2. The agents of chemical weathering Water Acid Precipitation Plants Oxidation-oxygen reacts with metals to form rust

Agents of Chemical Weathering Acid Rain- pollutants or volcanic ash mixes with water in the atmosphere Water- reacts with minerals in rocks to form new minerals Oxidation- oxygen reacts with metals and forms rust Plants-Moss and lichens release chemicals
