mostly o horizon, but some also occur in the a horizon
The A horizon is the top layer of soil, where most organic matter accumulates and plant roots grow. The R horizon is a layer of partially weathered bedrock underneath the soil layers. The A horizon develops from the weathering of the R horizon over time.
Chemical weathering of limestone would occur most rapidly in a warm and wet climate, where there is abundant rainfall and high temperatures to facilitate the dissolution and erosion of the limestone.
Weathering typically attacks the outer surface or exposed edges of a rock most rapidly. This is because these areas are more exposed to the elements, such as rain, wind, and temperature fluctuations, which accelerate the breakdown of the rock material.
Chemical weathering occurs most rapidly in warm and humid climates where there is ample moisture and organic material to facilitate chemical reactions. Areas with high temperatures, abundant rainfall, and vegetation tend to experience faster rates of chemical weathering.
The variables that most affect the weathering process are rock composition and climate. Rock composition determines the susceptibility of a rock to weathering, while climate influences the rate and type of weathering that occurs, with factors such as temperature, precipitation, and vegetation playing key roles.
Weathering tends to attack the outermost layer of a rock, known as the rock surface or rind, most rapidly. This layer is more exposed to the elements and is therefore more susceptible to weathering processes such as erosion, chemical weathering, and physical weathering.
Weathering attacks the surface of the rock most rapidly.
Wet. Hot and wet climates allow for the fastest weathering.
The A horizon is the top layer of soil, where most organic matter accumulates and plant roots grow. The R horizon is a layer of partially weathered bedrock underneath the soil layers. The A horizon develops from the weathering of the R horizon over time.
The most important factors that determine the rate at which weathering occurs are the type of rock and the climate. Rainfall affects the rate of weathering.

not necessarily, mainly in places that are warm.

water freezes in a crack in a rock
The predicted agents of weathering are tall grasses and trees which cause mild winds.
The correct answer is limestone in a warm, wet climate.Your Welcome! :D
Eolian Weathering. Wind breaking down and moving particles.
