The rate of decomposition of the rock will increase when it is broken up because there is more surface area exposed to the elements weather) that can erode the surfaces.

Mayan,,, they really didnt have to any influence elsewhere
The rate at which rock weathers is primarily determined by climate (temperature and precipitation), the type of rock (composition and structure), and the presence of living organisms (such as plants or bacteria) that can contribute to the weathering process.

Rate of cooling of the magma and Chemical composition of the magma.
Rock characteristics such as mineral composition and porosity can influence the rate of weathering. Climatic factors like temperature fluctuations and precipitation levels can also have a significant impact on the rate of weathering.
Oxygen in the air and acids.
Sedimentary rock weathers the fastest and easiest
Factors that can influence the rate of weathering include climate (temperature and precipitation), type of rock or mineral, presence of vegetation, human activity, and presence of water, as well as the frequency of freeze-thaw cycles and the acidity of the environment.
The minerals that are in a rock will influence how quick it weathers. Strong materials will not weather as quickly as loose materials.
The rate of weathering depends on several factors such as climate, rock type, and presence of vegetation. In general, weathering is faster in warm, wet environments and on softer rock types. Additionally, human activities can also influence the rate of weathering.
Rocks weather due to physical changes. They can also weather as a result of chemical processes. Things that can affect the rate at which a rock weathers includes weather conditions. Rocks can decompose due to wind and water. The more intense the weather conditions, the more progressive the weathering process will be.
