Chemical weathering is a gradual and ongoing process as the mineralogy of the rock adjusts to the near-surface environment. Secondary minerals develop from the original primary minerals of the rock. In this the processes oxidation and hydrolysis are the most frequent chemical processes that take place. Lack of moisture in deserts and low temperatures in Polar Regions slow down chemical weathering. Chemical weathering is a gradual and ongoing process as the mineralogy of the rock adjusts to the near-surface environment. Secondary minerals develop from the original primary minerals of the rock. In this the processes oxidation and hydrolysis are the most frequent chemical processes that take place. High temperature conditions lead to a slower rate of weathering. High temperature which is reason for greater rainfall increases the chemical weathering.
