The most important weathering agent is water.Water dissolve soluble materials transforming rocks.
The primary agent of chemical weathering is water.
Abrasion is often likened to a sandpaper effect acting on the rock in question. Abrasion occurs when an agent of erosion carries sediment and the sediment collides with a rock face, breaking both up.
When rocks are broken down without any change to their chemical compositions it is mechanical weathering. Causes of mechanical weathering are Freezing and melting of water, Abrasion, when the rock is weather by an abrasive agent such as wind and sand, and exfoliation occurs when a rock is brought to the surface.
Chemical weathering - the rock is dissolved by rain-water acidified slightly by absorbed atmospheric carbon-dioxide.

Agents of chemical weathering depend on the climate and composition of the rock that is breaking down. Some Agents would include, water, oxygen, CO2, and acids. Temperature plays a significant role in chemical weathering. If it is warm and wet, the Chemical weathering process will increase. So, really it all depends.
