Question

Do chalk powder mix in water

Open in App

Solution

Chalk’s main component is CaCO3 , calcium carbonate. The solubility of calcium carbonate is extremely low in water, so therefore an extremely minute amount of CaCO3 is able to dissolve in a normal amount of water. The rest would remain solid, classifying it as mostly insoluble in water.
