What are the factors that control the rate of chemical weathering and those that control the rate of physical weathering?
Temperature is another significant factor in chemical weathering because it influences the rate at which chemical interactions occur. Chemical reactions rates increase as temperatures increases. With all other factors being equal, the rate of chemical weathering reactions doubles with each 10C increase in temperature.
As the temperature of an environment increases the rate of chemical weathering of its rocks will most likely?
Increase
Does the rate of chemical weathering increase or stay the same when a rock becomes more mechanical weathered?
The rate of chemical weathering increases when a rock becomes more mechanically weathered, also called abrasion.
What increases the rate of chemical weathering of rock?
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. :)
Why is chemical weathering faster in the tropics?
Because chemical reactions happen quicker in an increases temperature. So the more chemical reactions, the more chemical weathering
The rate of chemical weathering increases with this?
surface area

What is the main thing that mechanical weathering accomplishes that makes chemical weathering more efficient?
Mechanical weathering increases the surface area that can be attacked by chemical weathering.
Why is chemical weathering faster in the tropics?
Because chemical reactions happen quicker in an increases temperature. So the more chemical reactions, the more chemical weathering
What is the relationship between surface area and weathering rate?
The rate of weathering also depends on the surface area that is exposed. Mechanical weathering breaks rocks into smaller pieces. As the pieces get smaller, their surface area increases. When this happens, there is more total surface area available for chemical weathering. The result is that weathering has more of an effort on smaller particles.
How mechanical weathering can affect the rate of chemical weathering?
I dont know :d !!

Do acid rain increase or decrease the rate of weathering?
Increases it.
