Feldspar breaks down giving us Al, Si and O in solution. You also get clay minerals left behind.

Is feldspar pink?
Feldspar minerals comes in a variety of colors and chemical formulas. The most common pink feldspar is orthoclase.
Where is chemical weathering most common?
The primary agent of chemical weathering is water.
What pair of minerals most common in detrital sedimentary rocks?
Clay minerals and quartz are the chief constituents of most sedimentary rocks in this category. To answer why, clay minerals are the most abundant product of the chemical weathering of silicate minerals, especially the feldspars. Clays are fine-grained minerals with sheetlike crystalline structures similar to the micas. Quartz is abundant because it is extremely durable and very resistant to chemical weathering. Thus, when igneous rocks such as granite are attacked by weathering processes, individual quartz grains are freed.
Is quartz affected by chemical weathering?
Quartz goes through virtually no chemical weathering, as its form SiO2 is extremely stable. It's nearly unreactive.
What processes creates karst topography?
The physical weathering and chemical weathering process creates Karst topography and landscapes. Caves and Caverns are common of Karst topography.
What is the most common end product of chemical weathering of quartz is?
silicon
The most common end product of the chemical weathering of quartz is?
Solute silica.
What most common cause of chemical weathering?
The most common cause of chemical weathering is oxygen
What is most common cause of chemical weathering?
The most common cause of chemical weathering is oxygen

Climate of chemical weathering?
Chemical weathering is most common in warm and wet climate.

What is the most common type of chemical weathering?
oxegyn
What do mechanical and chemical weathering have in common?
What mechanical and chemical weathering have in common is they both break rocks down into smaller and smaller pieces. Eventually the weathered rock will be eroded.
Is quartz affected by chemical weathering?
Quartz goes through virtually no chemical weathering, as its form SiO2 is extremely stable. It's nearly unreactive.
Why does Quartz resist chemical weathering more than other common material?
because of its hardness
