Not like on Earth. The moon has no atmosphere, so there is no wind or air at all to cause erosion. However, the moon is bombarded with objects in space that normally would burn up in our atmosphere, resulting in all of the craters that can be seen from the Earth.

Weathering requires weather, which requires an atmosphere. There would be no weather on the moon, as it is an airless orb. Mars has very thin winds. It snows, or at least, frost accumulates and recedes at each pole during winter. There are also thin winds that blow, and dust storms. These must cause a minor bit of weathering.

There is no surface water on Venus or Mars, and so there is no hydrologic cycle. Rain and snow cause significant weathering here on earth. On venus and mars the only thing to cause weathering is sand born by wind.

No. Because there is no atmosphere on the moon, there is no wind, no weather, and no erosion.

No. There is no gas (it has no atmosphere) or water (it has no hydrosphere) on the moon. As such there can be no erosion caused by wind or water.

No there is no acid or alkali on the moon so no chemical weathering could occur.
