If you meant weathering that is caused by water; physical weathering is the answer.
Physical weathering is a type of weathering in which minerals react with dissolved oxygen in water. This causes chemical changes to take place in the minerals.
Hydration
Hydration
The type of weathering that occurs when rock is broken down as it absorbs water is known as hydration weathering. This process involves the absorption of water into the rock structure, causing it to weaken and break apart over time.
That would be oxidation.

Sunlight and wind can cause weathering.
A type of Chemical weathering that happens when water interacts with minerals.
Water causes mechanical and chemical weathering.
Chemical weathering is the type of weathering caused by chemical reactions in water. This process involves the breakdown of rocks and minerals through chemical reactions with water, leading to the alteration of the rock's composition. Examples of chemical weathering processes in water include hydration, hydrolysis, and oxidation.
