Answer 2

Oxidation is the process of weathering that gives rounded appearance to basaltic rock.

Explanation:

• As compared to other rocks on earth the basalts weather faster as compared to others as they typically are weather by the chemical processes of iron-rich oxides and oxidize rapidly with water and produce a rounded appearance.

• This process is called as Spheroidal weathering. It's also called onion peel weathering as the surface of the rocks become more and more rounded.
