Physical weathering is the breakdown of a rock in place into smaller fragments without change of its minerals. Chemical weathering is the transformation of the minerals of a rock in place by reaction with water and the substances it carries, mainly hydrogen ions, dissolved carbon dioxide and oxygen: some minerals dissolve, others are replaced by new minerals stable at the surface, and part of the rock leaves in solution.
