Weathering is the breaking down of rocks, soil andminerals as well as artificial materials through contact with the Earth's atmosphere, biota and waters. Weathering occurs in situ, or "with no movement", and thus should not be confused with erosion, which involves the movement of rocks and minerals by agents such as water, ice, snow, wind, waves and gravity.
Two ways in which water may increase the rate of weathering is by waves and by precipitation?
what do humans do to increase the rate of weathering
The rate will increase due to the increase in surface area available for attack by chemical weathering.
Temperature is another significant factor in chemical weathering because it influences the rate at which chemical interactions occur. Chemical reactions rates increase as temperatures increases. With all other factors being equal, the rate of chemical weathering reactions doubles with each 10C increase in temperature.
If you do a chalk experiment, you will find out that increasing the surface area speeds the rate of weathering. The reaction/weathering will happen quicker. Most people are doing this in science. Your welcome

Increases it.

The rate would increase, assuming similar rate of precipitation.
the rate of weathering is hardness of rock structure of rock and grainsize chemical properties, especially calcium carbonate rainfall (volume and intensity wind freezing/thawing vegetation (or lack of) slope (increase slope = increase weathering) salt processes (salt water enters cracks then crystallises, forcing small cracks open like ice does)

It will increase it. CO2 reacts with water to form small amounts of carbonic acid (H2CO3). The mildly acidic water that results can dissolve some minerals, particularly carbonates.
