Answer:
Exfoliation is a form of mechanical weathering in which curved plates of. rock are stripped from rock below. This results in exfoliation domes or. dome-like hills and rounded boulders. Exfoliation domes occur along planes.
Oxidation makes rocks softer. ... Since there is a lot of iron in many rocks, oxidation often happens. Hydrolysis usually causes rocks to expand and then mechanical weathering can begin. These chemical reactions are happening all of the time.
