Normally, sedimentary rocks weather more rapidly than igneous or metamorphic rocks due to the ability of water to attack the cementing material and the ability of ice, water and plant roots to attack and separate the depositional layers.
SMALL PIECES OF CLAY
The answer is shale, the sedimentary end product of mud and/or mud with organic matter. Shale is normally high in clay mineral content. Limestone contains a large amount of calcite, and is subject to erosion via acidic rain. Schist rocks contain more quartz and feldspars which are fairly hard minerals.
Of the three rock types, sedimentary rock normally weathers the fastest.
Limestone and sandstone wear away the fastest due to them containing calcium carbonate.
Clay will weather the fastest.

igneous rock
Over time the rock weathers.
Yes, the minerals that make upa rock partially determine how fast it weathers. But while there is some truth in this statement, the answer has to be false because the environment the rock surface is exposed to also determines how fast it weathers.
Oxidation
Sedimentary rock weathers the fastest and easiest
The mountain peak weathers fastest.
Oxygen in the air and acids.

igneous rock
The rock cracks and weathers.

Oxidation

Oxidation
It lands on the rocks and dissolves them.
