Lack of rain prevents chemical erosion in a dessert.
coastal areas
Erosion and weathering typically work over long periods of time, causing change slowly. However, with global warming and loss of native plants in many areas, erosion and weathering are happening at a more rapid rate.
No.
Because it's cold and dry and chemical weathering usually happens in warm and wet areas like the tropical areas
dry areas.that is mainly in desert areas.
Rainfall is minimal, chemical weathering occurs slowly, the soil is thin and consists mainly of regolith(evidence that soil in these areas forms mostly by mechanical weathering) too cold to sustain life, so little humus.
Chemical weathering requires water to speed it up. Since there is little water in the desert, it is a slow process compared to weathering in more humid areas.

No. Chemical weathering is to do with acidic rain. This is a type of physical weathering, where it isn't the rainwater's ph, but the fact it freezes in cracks, expands, and prises the rock apart(creating a broken skyline or a scree slope). It occurs in damp areas where water is sometimes, not always below freezing.
Chemical weathering is slowest in cold, arid regions.
differential weathering water wears away some areas but not all
Land near coastal areas can be subject to physical weathering.
soil forms as rock is broken down by weathering and mixes with other materials on the surface. Soil is constantly being formed wherever bedrock is exposed. The rate at which soil forms depends on the climate and tpye of rock.Weathering occurs most rapidly in areas with a warm, rainy climate.
yes
