CHEMICAL WEATHERING Chemical weathering is a process of alteration of rocks of the Earth’s crust. is a chemical decomposition process. is brought out by atmospheric gases and moisture. End product has a different chemical composition and poorer physical constitution. The process: Chemical change in the nature of rock takes place in the presence of moisture containing many active gases such as CO2‚ N2‚ H2‚ and O2. Rocks are made up of minerals. All the minerals in a rock are not in

Chemical Formula Principles Chemical Formula is a system of chemical notation that was invented in 181 by John Jakob Berzelius. The system is based on the law of definite proportions”‚ states that all samples of a given chemical compound have the same elemental composition. It is also a way of expressing information about the proportions of atoms that constitute a particular chemical compound‚ using a single line of chemical element symbols‚ numbers‚ and sometimes also other symbols‚ such as

Chemical bonds are what make up the world. In bonds‚ elements are held together and form compounds that may have new physical and chemical properties. There are two main kinds of bonds‚ they ionic and covalent. In bonding the goal of the atoms involved is to reach a level of stability with less energy. In order to reach the epitome of stability‚ as in the case of noble gases‚ an atom strives to complete its outer shell. Either losing or gaining electrons may do this‚ which concludes in an ionic bond

Chemical kinetics‚ also known as reaction kinetics‚ is the study of rates of chemical processes. Chemical kinetics includes investigations of how different experimental conditions can influence the speed of a chemical reaction and yield information about the reaction’s mechanism and transition states‚ as well as the construction of mathematical models that can describe the characteristics of a chemical reaction. In 1864‚ Peter Waage and Cato Guldberg pioneered the development of chemical kinetics
