Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

Water is an important component of both physical and chemical weathering. In physical weathering, the freeze/thaw cycles of water contribute to frost wedging, while evaporation is important to salt weathering. By definition, chemical weathering always involves the presence of water.
