Chemical weathering? No, this happens faster in rain forests. Water is an excellent solvent, and will dissolve a LOT of different materials. The primary form of weathering, however, is physical. Running water will wear away nearly ANY substance, given enough time. The Grand Canyon was created by what is now the Colorado River, wearing away the dirt and rock. You can have physical weathering in the deserts as well; think "sandstorms". Blowing sand can destroy nearly anything.
Because chemical reactions happen quicker in an increases temperature. So the more chemical reactions, the more chemical weathering
Physical weathering breaks big rocks into little rocks and increases the surface area exposed to chemical agents, such as carbonic acid. The more the surface area, the faster the weathering.
Chemical weathering can be increased if rainwater has is more acidic. Meaning it has a pH level higher than 5.5. Chemical weathering occurs quicker in warm and moist climates. :)
== == Rocks weather the fastest, due to chemical means, in high rainfall , high temperature conditions.
Yes, but very little in relation to wetter areas. Most weathering in deserts is due to mechanical weathering processes, such as plant root growth, frost heaving, and most importantly, abrasion from windblown particles.
chemical weathering occurs faster in a hot climate because chemical reactions speed up with increased temperature.

Yes because chemical weathering occurs faster in desert climates. Rocks are us to chemical weathering and temperate climates get it but not as much.

It has the highest rate of chemical weathering because chemical weathering occurs much faster in hot, humid climates. This makes rain forests a target for chemical weathering, and in hot seasons, the weathering skyrockets.

TRUE!
chemical weathering works faster copper roof turns brown then green after several years in air or in minutes with the right chemicals iron hardware can be browned or blued so the weathering being the universe wind rain air sun = natural vibration annealing sanding peening = mechanical chemical =chemical
