Question 4 • Earth and Space Science

Which location shows an example of weathering that changes a rock’s chemical properties?

Answer
A
limestone cave
B
desert canyon
C
mountain pass
D
forest trail

Explanation

A limestone cave can form when slightly acidic water dissolves limestone, changing the rock’s chemical composition. This is chemical weathering. A desert canyon, mountain pass, or forest trail may show erosion or physical weathering, but the limestone cave is the clearest example of chemical change.
