The change of soil becoming wet due to rain is a physical change. The soil's state changes from dry to wet without any alteration in its chemical composition.
A decrease in temperature would slow chemical weathering of soil by slowing down the chemical reactions that break down rocks and minerals into smaller particles. Lower temperatures limit the speed at which water and chemicals can react with the soil components.
Decreasing the surface area of the rock or increasing the pH level of the soil would slow the chemical weathering process. Additionally, reducing the presence of water or lowering the temperature can also slow down chemical weathering.
Rocks change to soil through a process called weathering. Weathering breaks down rocks into smaller pieces through physical, chemical, or biological processes. Over time, these smaller rock fragments mix with organic matter to form soil.
The pH level in soil can change due to factors such as rainfall, leaching, plant growth, and the decomposition of organic matter. These processes can introduce or remove acidic or basic compounds, leading to fluctuations in soil pH.
The word you are looking for may be "excavating".

I'm 13 and I know for a fact that soil erosion is physically changed.
No, erosion caused by wind is a physical change, not a chemical change. The wind is simply moving particles of rock or soil from one place to another without altering their chemical composition.
It's possible to reverse the change. All you need to do is seperate the sand and the soil. No chemical bonds were altered or anything.

chemical soil
In civil engineering, excavation is a process whereby rock or soil material is removed from the ground usually forming a void or hole.
A decrease in temperature would slow chemical weathering of soil by slowing down the chemical reactions that break down rocks and minerals into smaller particles. Lower temperatures limit the speed at which water and chemicals can react with the soil components.
No, that is just a mixture. You are simply mixing nutrients in with the soil. The soil does not change chemically. You still have dirt and fertilizer. An example of a chemical change would be when you mix baking soda and vinegar. You no longer have either one if you mixed them equally, but you end up with carbon dioxide gas and sodium acetate in water. Now, chemical changes do happen inside of plants as they use the nutrients as fuel and creating cells.
