  • First, add water to the sugar and chalk solution.
  • Stir until the sugar dissolves.
  • The chalk will form a layer on top of the water, allowing you to scoop it out with a spoon.
  • Then, let the water evaporate on a hot plate, which will cause the sugar to crystallize in the container.

The chalk consists of CaCO3 (calcium carbonate) while the washing soda consists of NaCO3 (sodium carbonate). Since sodium carbonate is much more soluble in water than calcium carbonate, add water to the mixture. The sodium carbonate will dissolve while the calcium carbonate will not. To recover the sodium carbonate, simply boil the solution or let it evaporate.

How do you separate chalk and sugar?

Firstly mix the water well to make sure all of the sugar has dissolved. Then, depending on the weight of the chalk (whether it is in chunks or powder form) it will either sink to the bottom of the mixture of float on top. If the chalk is floating on top, you can simply scoop it out. Otherwise, pour the mixture through some filter paper to separate the chalk from the sugar water. Now, once the chalk is separated, you can boil the water to evaporate it, leaving just the sugar behind.
