Which outcome occurs when dissolved carbon dioxide concentrations increase?

💡 Explanation

An increased carbon dioxide concentration drives carbonic acid formation, which weathers limestone; this is achieved using chemical weathering via dissolution. Limestone dissolves because carbonate minerals react with carbonic acid, therefore releasing calcium, rather than feldspar formation which requires different processes.
