I have 2 questions:

What is the primary difference between weathering and erosion?
Select one:

a.
Weathering causes a rock to weaken so that erosion can then break it apart

b.
Weathering is the breaking down of rock; erosion is the moving of rock

c.
Erosion is the scraping of rock; weathering is the breaking

d.
Erosion is the breaking down of rock; weathering is the moving of rock

2:
As surface area increases, the rate of _____ increases.

Respuesta :

Answer:1.With weathering, rock is disintegrated into smaller pieces. Once these sediments are separated from the rocks, erosion is the process that moves the sediments away from it's original position. The four forces of erosion are water, wind, glaciers, and gravity. Water is responsible for most erosion. 2.Increasing the surface area of a reactant increases the frequency of collisions and increases the reaction rate. Several smaller particles have more surface area than one large particle. The more surface area that is available for particles to collide, the faster the reaction will occur.
