Which result occurs when granite bedrock undergoes intense hydrolysis?

💡 Explanation

Kaolinite clay is produced because hydrolysis chemically weathers feldspars in granite, rather than exclusively mechanical breakdown; therefore, clay minerals will form rather than deposition, fracturing, or resistant pebbles because of feldspar's breakdown.
