Put the following steps in sequence to describe how chemical sedimentary rocks form ?
1. when a body of water becomes saturated with dissolved minerals, crystal precipitate out of solution
2) they settle to the bottom , creating layers of sedimentary rock
3) during chemical weathering , minerals can be dissolved and carried into lakes and ocean

Option (D)

Explanation: Chemical weathering refers to the breakdown of minerals and forming new minerals due to the presence of chemical elements. For example, hydrolysis.

Due to the chemical weathering, initially, the minerals will get dissolved and are carried to the streams and oceans. After that, due to the saturation by water, the crystals will be precipitated out of that existing solution.

This crystals then sinks down to the bottom, forming sedimentary rocks.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

a). in this case, dh> 0 and sd> 0. if t becomes larger, the term "-tds" will become more negative. at some point, it is possible that -dts will be more negative than the dh is positive, and the reaction will become spontaneous. this is probably the correct answer, but you should look at all of the other possibilities and make sure of that.
