The process is called erosion.
Lithospheric plates are a number of rigid but moving pieces of earths surface.
Sedimentary rocks form as pieces of loose material get pressed or cemented together. The process of forming sedimentary rocks is lithification.
The answer is tectonic plates floating on the lithosphere. Does that answer your question? LOL :)
The small pieces have a larger combined surface area than the previous large piece had. When you cut the block into pieces, you are exposing new surfaces that were previously on the inside of the block. And the process of dissolving happens at the surface. So the more surface is exposed, the faster something can dissolve.
The crust.
