Describe the factors that control the rate of chemical weathering and those that control the rate of physical weathering

Physical Weathering: Rainfall, Winds, and frost.

Chemical Weathering: Rock Composition ( Minerals and their solubility) and Climate.

Explanation:

Physical Weathering

Rainfall is a factor that produces Saltation, a process that transports the loose materials from the rock and carries them down through the water flow created by rainfall.

Winds over time can break down the surface or the rock and transport the loose materials, This process is augmented on low vegetation and sandy regions of the world.

Frost weathering refers to a series of processes in which the water present in the rock freezes altering the physical composition by fracturing the rock trough the openings where liquid water once entered.

Chemical Weathering

Rock composition is vital when studying chemical weathering, depending on if the minerals present in the rock are soluble or not the chemical weathering will be stronger and faster. Exposed rock suffer from atmospheric variables such as Temperature and humidity and in hot and humid regions the chemical weathering is faster, for example, coastal regions are more sensitive to chemical weathering than a central region.
