Solution

The correct option is C Both the statements are individually true and Statement II is the correct explanation of Statement I
Chemical weathering pertains to the changes in rock structure under the action or influence of chemical reactions. It is most active in warm and humid conditions. When rain falls, the water is slightly acidic because carbon dioxide from the air dissolves in it. Minerals in rocks may react with the rainwater, causing the rock to be weathered.
