A.
	Winds scrape the rock layers away, exposing them to acids in the rain.
	
 
B.
	The roots of plants fit into cracks of iron-rich rocks, exposing them to moisture in the air, which causes the rocks to rust.
	
 
C.
	Acids in the rain create holes in the rock, which allows water to get inside for ice wedging.
	
 
D.
	Plants secrete acids that create holes in iron-rich rocks, thereby exposing them to moisture in the air, which causes the rocks to rust.

A and B are examples of physical weathering affecting chemical weathering (the opposite of what you're looking for). D is an example of chemical weathering leading to more chemical weathering (again not what you're looking for).
