Chemical weathering occurs faster in warm tropical climates, although it happens in cold climates as well, describe some conditions in antarctica that could lead to chemical weathering

Conditions in which it will lead to chemical weathering are the following;

-          Oxidation – formation of oxides when a rock reacts with elements oxygen and water changing into different color.

-          Dissolving in acid – carbonic acid is formed when carbon dioxide is dissolve n water, creating karst topography in creating sink holes and caves.

-          Hydrolysis – chemical weathering which is caused with the element water, it turns clay minerals.

-          Water absorption – rocks are put into stress making them vulnerable and expand.

-          Hydration – removal of water in the rocks.
