Step-by-step explanation:

what happens to a rock when it is weathered?

Weathering is the breaking down or dissolving of rocks and minerals on Earths surface. Once a rock has been broken down, a process called erosion transports the bits of rock and minerals away. ... Water, ice, acids, salts, plants, animals, and changes in temperature are all agents of weathering.
