    mechanical weathering causes rock to break down into pieces. the lesser the size of the particles, the more the surface or exposed or reactive area of the rock.

  13. Mechanical weathering helps to increase chemical weathering by breaking down rock even further. The more surface area showing the faster chemical weathering can work.

  15. Increase surface area speeds up everything thats around the area.

  16. MECHANICAL weathering exposes fresh surfaces to the chemical agents.
    Since it increases the surface areas subject to chemical attack it speeds up the process a lot. By multiples usually, not small increments.
    This is part of why in most ore processing crushing and milling is so important.
