Question

While physical weathering will break a rock into chunks _ turns the rock into soil

Answer 1

while physical weathering will break a rock into chunks physical erosion turns the rock into soil

Step-by-step explanation:

Physical weathering is the breaking down of rocks into smaller quantity without changing the chemical constituent of the rocks. The rocks are usually broken down into smaller constituent by physical means such as freezing and thawing , temperature, rain , wind etc. This rocks are broken into chunks and later transported by erosion.

Erosion is a geological phenomenon in which earth materials are worn away and transported by forces like wind and water. Forces of physical erosion like water , wind and ice can further disintegrate the already small particles into silt or clay size constituent for easy transportation. Physical erosion often causes rocks to get smaller and smother for easy transportation.

Answer 2

While physical weathering will break a rock into chunks erosion turns the rock into soil.

Erosion is caused by water, wind, acidity of water, plant growth, tectonic movement etc.
