CHEMICAL WEATHERINGDISSOLUTION
Water removes ions or ion groups from a rock ormineral and carries them away.
Precipitate later when water evaporates.Due to the bipolar nature of water molecules,
ions become dissolved and are transported insolution.

CHEMICAL WEATHERING
DISSOLUTION
HaliteNa+ is attracted to OH- side of water moleculesCl- is attracted to the H+ side of water molecules
Water can also react with another compound to form an acid.
H2O + CO2 H2CO3 (Carbonic acid)
The acid can then decompose minerals.
H2CO3 + CaCO3 Ca+2 + 2HCO3- (Bicarbonate)
Removed by erosion

CHEMICAL WEATHERING
DISSOLUTION
Dissolution is the process by which caves are formed.Calcite is dissolved, Ca+2 and HCO3
- end up in theocean.
Then removed from the ocean by marine organismsin the production of skeletal material.

CHEMICAL WEATHERING
OXIDATIONPositive ions in minerals combine with oxygen to
produce oxides.
4Fe+3 + 3O2 2Fe2O3 (hematite)
If the reaction takes place in water, limonite (FeOOH) is produced.
Collectively called RUST.

Also affects other metals such as copper.

CHEMICAL WEATHERING
HYDROLYSIS
WEATHERING and the BREAKDOWN of ROCKS
H+ and OH- ions in water displace other ions in a mineral structure producing a new mineral.
Feldspars are readily changed by hydrolysis.
2KAlSi3O8 + 2H+ + 9H2O
Al2Si2O5(OH)4 + 4H4SiO4 + 2K+
OrthoclaseFeldspar
Kaolinite SilicicAcid

Hydrolysis of orthoclase, other feldspars and maficminerals produces clays and clay minerals.
Clays become incorporated in soils or wash to thesea by erosion.
Dissolved materials produced can cement sedimentary grains
Or, be utilized by plants (K+).

So……
What are the factors that influence
CHEMICAL WEATHERING?

FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE CHEMICAL WEATHERING
WEATHERING and the BREAKDOWN of ROCKS
CLIMATE
Water drives all three reactions discussed.Heat also speeds reactions.Warm, humid climates are most suitable for chemical
weathering reactions.Warm, humid climates also tend to have more plants.When plants die, decomposition increases the
production of organic acids and increaseschemical weathering.

FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE CHEMICAL WEATHERING
WEATHERING and the BREAKDOWN of ROCKS
LIVING ORGANISMSMix up soil exposing more material to surface for
weathering reactions.

FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE CHEMICAL WEATHERING
WEATHERING and the BREAKDOWN of ROCKS
TIME
The longer a rock or mineral is exposed to weatheringthe more weathering takes place.
![Page 17: Rick's Cafe in Jamaica Keith Fairbrother](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568139e5550346895da19c3d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE CHEMICAL WEATHERING
WEATHERING and the BREAKDOWN of ROCKS
MINERAL COMPOSITION
The effect of chemical weathering in rocks is relatedto the stability of the minerals in the rock.
Since most rock-forming minerals are silicates, the strength of the bonds between the silica tetrahedra influences how they are weathered.
The more silicon-oxygen bonds between thetetrahedra, the more resistant to weathering is the mineral.

SPHERIODAL WEATHERING
Mechanical weathering breaks up rocks into smallerpieces.
Chemical weathering rounds off corners.

SOILS AND SOIL FORMATION
WEATHERING and the BREAKDOWN of ROCKS
Mechanical and chemical weathering of sedimentand pre-existing bedrock below producesREGOLITH.
REGOLITH is all the material above the bedrock.
SOIL is the upper part (up to a few meters) of regolith that supports plant life.
Soil contains both mineral and organic matter (decaying vegetation).
Soil also contains air and water.
