Of course! Muskets traditionally used only black powder. I would be more concerned about smokeless, since it generates a higher pressure wave than black. Don't forget about acidity differences, though--keep it clean.

Why is the flintlock musket bad for shooting fowl?
I can not say it would be "Bad" to hunt fowl with a musket, it would be a very long day if it were loaded with single ball. If loaded with shot and wad and a smooth bore it would differ little from a purpose built fowler other than weight. I have hunted turkey, dove and squirrel over the years with a Charleville musket loaded with shot and had no problems at all.

How did the flintlock musket work?
The flintlock musket fires a (usually lead) projectile with a charge of black powder. When the shooter pulls the trigger, it releases a spring loaded flint striker. The flint striker ignites primer in the primer pan which then goes to ignite the black powder thus expelling the projectile. They are almost universally made to be muzzle loaders meaning that with every shot, the shooter had to pour black powder, a wad, and a lead bullet down the barrel, then prime and cock before being able to fire.

Is a black powder musket considered a rifle?
No, a rifle has rifling in its barrel (spiral grooves to make the bullet spin, thus stabilizing it and improving accuracy). A musket barrel is smooth.
Is gun pouder a mixture?
Gun powder is mixture.
What is the difference between a musket and a muzzle loader?
not sure if this is what you are looking for but a musket is usually smooth bored meaning it has no rifling in the barrel where a muzzle loader can have rifling. A muzzle loader refers to any weapon that is loaded thru the muzzle in a simple definition and it can be either smooth bored like a musket or rifled like a Pennsylvania long rifle or like most modern muzzle loaders are today
