← GeographyWhich outcome occurs when increased soil acidity accelerates?
A)Karst formations expand rapidly✓
B)Igneous rock crystallization occurs faster
C)Gravel sediment formation increases faster
D)Clay infiltration rates remain unaffected
💡 Explanation
Increased soil acidity leads to accelerated chemical weathering. The mechanism is dissolution along carbonate rocks, because dilute carbonic acid dissolves the limestone, therefore karst landscapes expand faster, rather than affecting igneous rocks or clay-based environments.
