Question

difference between chemical weathering and mechanical weathering​

Answer 1

Chemical weathering involves a chemical change in at least some of the minerals within a rock. Mechanical weathering involves physically breaking rocks into fragments without changing the chemical make-up of the minerals within it. It's important to keep in mind that weathering is a surface or near-surface process.

Answer 2

Answer:

Most sources divide weathering into two types: Mechanical weathering, which changes the form of objects without affecting their molecular composition (e.g., soil erosion), and chemical weathering, in which the composition of Earth's rocks and waterways are altered as a result of chemical processes.
