It‘s a lab question about chemical weathering, what influences the rate of chemical weathering? Our experiment was basically finding the change in mass day after day after soaking limestone, marble, and dolomite in hydrochloric acid per day
There are many factors which affect the rating of weathering depending on what type of weathering you are referring to. In your case some of the major factors would be temperature (higher temperaturemore energy to fuel reactionsmore reactions occurringfaster weathering), concentration of HCl (higher concentrationmore HCl available to reactmore reactionsfaster weathering), how reactive the substance being eroded is to your eroding agent (HCl) (e.x. limestone will dissolve much more readily than dolomite), and the length of time the substance is exposed to the eroding agent (longer exposuremore reactantsmore reactionsfaster weathering).
