Granite will weather more slowly, since it is an igneous rock and is extremely resistant to weathering.
A single block of 500 kg granite weathers more slowly than 100 chunks of 5 kg each due to the smaller surface area-to-volume ratio of the single block. The surface area is where weathering processes predominantly occur, so a larger surface area increases the exposure to weathering agents like water and air. The smaller chunks have more surface area relative to their volume, leading to increased weathering compared to the larger block.
Since granite is an igneous rock this makes it highly resistant to weathering. Therefore, granite will weather more slowly than limestone.
Granite is formed from magma that cools slowly, deep below the earth's surface. Very coarse-grained granite, called pegmatite, is formed when the magma cools extremely slowly. Most granite is hard grained

Marble will weather more quickly. The mineral calcite, of which marble is composed is softer and less resistant to abrasion than granite. It is also more susceptible to chemical weathering via natural and man-caused acidic rainfall due to its chemical composition. Granite--not so susceptible.
I'll say granite because the limestone as you know, is faster to it's weathering.
Small pieces of clay. The totality of the clay minerals present in small pieces of clay would be washed away more quickly than the totality of the clay minerals present in the large blocks of clay. Granite, large pieces or small, would weather more slowly than clay.
Granite, the rock, is formed as magma slowly cools and crystallizes (solidifies) over great lengths of time, deep underground. The result is that visible crystals form, as the minerals have plenty of time to grow.
Because granite forms instrusively. Under the ground so they cools slow and that's why they have large crystals. Basalt froms extrusivelt. They cools so fast and that's why they have small crystals than granite
more granite
Because crystals in granite had more time to form as the magma cooled slowly. Crystals that form on the surface are smaller because they cooled really quickly.
