it passes through the atmosphere. As it passes through soil‚ the water picks up more carbon dioxide from organic debris. The water and carbon dioxide combine to form a weak carbonic acid. This acid reacts with minerals in the rocks and either dissolves them or turns them into other minerals. Rocks such as chalk and limestone contain calcium carbonate. The calcium carbonate reacts with the weak carbonic acid to form calcium bicarbonate which is soluble. It is then removed in solution. Carbonation is

Give two examples of each of the four major mineral groups (silicates‚ carbonates‚ oxides and sulphides). ➔ Silicates: quartz and topaz ➔ Carbonates: magnesite and aragonite ➔ Oxides: uranite and hematite ➔ Sulphides: pyrite and marcasite 4. Distinguish between a rock and a mineral i.e.‚ what are they? How are they similar? How are they different? A rock is a solid mineral formed on the surface of the Earth. A mineral is a natural solid substance (i.e. mountains). They both are solid
