Answer:

Chemical Weathering

Step-by-step explanation:

Ice wedging and abrasion are two important processes of mechanical weathering. Chemical weathering breaks down rocks by forming new minerals. These minerals are stable at the Earth's surface. Water, carbon dioxide, and oxygen are important agents of chemical weathering.
