it is a suspension because; suspension = a solid and a liquid mixing which is what chalk dust and water is. :)

No. Chalk is mostly calcium carbonate, CaCO3, which is insoluble in water. The chalk will be visible at the bottom of the mixture, which means the concentration is not homogenous throughout, which it must be in order to be considered a solution.

yes chalk will dissolve into water and form an aqueous solution

--------

It is a mixture, not a solution because the solubility of calcium carbonate in water is extremely low.

Is chalk powder is soluble in water or not?

No chalk is not solouble. When chalk is put in water the water becomes a suspension ie the particles of chalk keep floating in water.


Is limestone a solution?

No it is not. Limestone itself is not a solution. Limestone is a rock which is primarily calcium carbonate as are marble and chalk. Calcium carbonate will react with water if the water contains dissolved Carbon Dioxide (forming a mild carbonic acid) resulting in Calcium Bicarbonate which is soluble and does form solution in water.


Why are bubbles formed when chalk is dipped in water?

due to capillary action water raises in chalk.. and the air in it comes out in form of bubbles...


Is chalk in water a suspension?

yes,it is a suspension because it is a heterogeneous mixture which is given in the question so it can not be a true solution. in the case of suspension the chalk powder in water is insoluble and the particle size is more than 2000 but in colloidal solution both in dispersed phase and dispersed medium the particles are soluble. so, it is a suspension.generally chalk powder in water is insoluble


How do you separate water and chalk powder?

Due to the chemical composition of Chalk, you can separate it from water either by filtration of evaporation.


Separate chalk from a mixture of chalk and copper sulfate solution?

Filter. The copper sulphate will pass through the filter paper. The undissolved chalk will remain in the filter paper.

How do you get chalk out of chalky water?

Chalk is calcium carbonate, which is insoluble in water. Hence, it can easily be removed by filteration. Moreover, calcium carbonate has reverse solubility in water, i.e. its solubility reduces with increase in temperature. Thus, the solution may be heated and then filtered.


When you mix chalk with water and then evaporate the water what do you have?

What happens when you add water to chalk?

Nothing will happen when you add water to chalk, because chalk does not dissolve in water. However, if you are drawing with chalk, as the water evaporates, it will allow the chalk to spread and create more fun.
