they are both rocks but both formed different ways chalk is formed by dead sea creatures skeleltons build up to form chalk and limestone is formed by shells and very littke amounts of mud and sand

Wiki User
∙ 13y agoChalk or limestone: chemical formula is CaCO3 - calcium carbonate.
But the physical and mineralogical properties are different.
Wiki User
∙ 7y agoBoth are chemically calcium carbonate; probable more calcite in chalk.

What are two types of limestone?
Chalk and marble are some other types of limestone.
Calcium carbonate is found in what substances?
it is one of the following soap or copper or ; limestone or wood or marble or baking powder or chalk which you need to find
What is a form of calcium carbonate softer than marble but harder than chalk?
Limestone is softer than marble, but harder than chalk.
What element is a solid found in marble limestone chalk and teeth?
Calcium.
What is the mineral in limestone?
Limestone, is impure crystalline Calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Chalk, and Marble are other CaCO3 minerals.
What is the relationship between limestone marble and chalk?
Chalk and marble are forms of limestone. They are all made of Calcium Carbonate.
What do limestone chalk marble calcium carbonate have in common?
they all have differentlimestone'swhich makes them have something in common. :D by jessicaxxx

What sedimentary rock forms marble?
Limestone or dolostone forms marble. This encompasses all types, from Chalk to Oolitic Limestone.
Where would you find stones?
Limestone is calcium carbonate. Marble is limestone. So is chalk powder.
What does marble metemorphosize from?
Limestone/chalk. Limestone has been subjected to heat and/or pressure, it metamorposes into marble. Both limestone and marble are calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Its just that the internal physical structure of limestone is altered.
Which element is a solid found in marble limestone chalk and marble?
CALCIUMThis element is calcium (Ca).
What is a form of calcium carbonate softer than marble but harder than chalk?
Limestone is softer than marble, but harder than chalk.
What element is a solid found in marble limestone chalk and teeth?
Calcium.
Where would you find lime stone?
Limestone is calcium carbonate. Marble is limestone. So is chalk powder.
What is the common name for calcium carbonate?
The common name of Calcium carbonate may be Chalk, but chemically that's not true, if it is the blackboard writing chalk. This chalk is actually Calcium sulfate, which is mistaken as Calcium carbonate, as its manufacturing process uses Calcium carbonate.So, I think the common name for chalk should be Limestone, which is the most common mineral form of this compound.
