Geoghaphy advanced level form 5&6_physical geography qn;The role of carbonation in the karst region

Karst is a topography formed from the dissolution of soluble rocks such as limestone, dolomite, and gypsum. It is characterized by underground drainage systems with sinkholes and caves. It has also been documented for more weathering-resistant rocks, such as quartzite, given the right conditions.
Carbonation is a process by which carbon dioxide and water chemically react to produce carbonic acid, a weak acid, that reacts with carbonate minerals in the rock. This process simultaneously weakens the rock and removes the chemically weathered materials.
