An example of an incongruent weathering reaction is that involving aluminosilicates.
An example of such a weathering reaction is the solution of calcite (CaCO3) in limestones: Here, one of the HCO3− ions comes from calcite and the other from CO2(g) in the reacting water.
Olivine weathering reaction rates are suggested to decrease with increasing pH [34].
Intensive weathering reaction enhances the major cations like Ca2+ and Mg2+ and Na2+ by secondary evaporation.
H4SiO4 is well correlated with Ca and Mg, indicating intensive weathering reaction that enhances H4SiO4.
If halite dissolution is responsible for sodium, Na+/Cl− ratio should be approximately equal to 1, whereas ratio greater than 1 is typically interpreted as Na released from silicate weathering reaction (Meyback 1987).

No matter what their origins, reactive gases in the atmosphere are likely to interact with other parts of the crust through what are termed weathering reactions.
The carbon dioxide any CO2 in the atmosphere will come in contact with water in the environment and is likely to dissolve to form carbonic acid: This weak acid is an important participant in weathering reactions that tend very slowly to dissolve rocks exposed to precipitation and groundwater at Earth's surface.
According to Hounslow (1995), essentially in silicate weathering reactions, bicarbonate is produced, suggesting that HCO3 − perhaps, originates primarily from silicate weathering reactions in groundwater within the basin.
Weathering reactions of clay minerals were more marked in the fine textured granite soil.
By this and similar weathering reactions throughout the history of the Earth, CO2 was removed from the atmosphere.
