If minerals in a rock have high solubility which weathering is more likely?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Solution weathering

Minerals with high solubility dissolve in rainwater or groundwater and are removed from the rock. This chemical weathering process is called solution weathering and is especially important in rocks containing soluble minerals, such as limestone. Thermal and frost weathering mainly break rocks physically; they do not dissolve minerals. Exam tip: Link “solubility” or “dissolving in water” with solution weathering.
