hot and wet conditions
Weathering breaks up rock into smaller particles which are more easily transported by the agents of erosion (wind, moving water, and moving ice).
An increase in temperature will speed chemical reactions. Therefore, in an environment where all other factors are equal, the environment with the highest temperature will have the most rapid chemical weathering of rock.
faster than the speed of sound
High speed wind such as a tornado or cyclone can result in weathering of rocks. weathering of rocks make the huge rocks into stones and then into pebbles and then gradually into sand.
Catalyst are used to speed up a chemical reaction. They participate in a chemical or biochemical reactions and function in lowering the activation energy. They are not consumed by this so they can be reused. Biocatalyst are known as enzymes.
Yes, heat speeds up most processes including chemical weathering. Humidity and moisture likewise contribute to a speeding up of the weathering process.
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.
Warm, wet, tropical climates speed chemical weathering of rock.
chemical weathering occurs faster in a hot climate because chemical reactions speed up with increased temperature.

Chemical weathering occurs more rapidly in a hot, wet climate because chemical reactions speed up with increased temperature.
Lots of rain, wind, freeze/thaw cycles. Hot, humid climates with high rainfall promote chemical weathering.
well physical weathering is when it breaks down rocks and chemical weathering is when rocks are dissolved or loosened so i suppose that it would be that over a certain amount of time goes by, the more weathering occurs. i hope that answers your question! (:

Mechanical weathering breaks down the rock into smaller pieces, exposing more surface area. This allows the acid and chemicals to break down the pieces of rock faster.
Surface area is one of them, and I think heat/water.
warm temperatures; very moist
