Answer to Question 1

Chemical weathering is the disintegration of rock with chemical alterations to the rock. Examples include hydration, hydrolisis, carbonation, and oxidization.

Answer to Question 2

Slopes are curved, inclined surfaces that form the boundaries of landforms. The basic components of a slope vary with conditions of rock structure and climate. They typically feature an upper waxing slope towards the top (convex surface); a free face indicating the presence of outcrop resistent rock; a debris slope, which receives rock fragments and materials from above; and a waning slope (concave surface).
