vinegar
In order to dissolve chalk in water, vinegar needs to be added. The vinegar has acid in it that eats away at the chalk to dissolve it.
Depends on the pH of the water but it would dissolve faster in fresh water because there isn't as much stuff in solution. true... but it took me about 8.30 seconds to dissolve with the perfect pH.....
Chalk is made out of Calcium Sulphate and it dissolves in weak acids which means it is a weak chemical to acids. So the vinegar wich is a typr of an acid dissolves the chalk with cool foams foaming in the jug or a cup. because of the acid in the vinegar EDIT(Dr.J.): Actually, chalk is mostly calcium carbonate, not calcium sulphate. The carbonate reacts with acetic acid (vinegar) to create CO2 and H2O as follows: CaCO3 + 2CH3COOH ==> Ca(CH3COO)2 + 2H2CO3 ==> 2CO2 + 2H2O
Chlorine bleach dissolves chalk the fastest because it is highly alkaline and breaks down the calcium carbonate in chalk quickly. However, it is important to note that this process can be hazardous and should be done with caution.
Chalk dissolves first in vinegar, followed by lemon juice, and lastly in water. This is because vinegar is acidic and reacts with the calcium carbonate in chalk to form a soluble calcium salt. Lemon juice, also acidic but less so than vinegar, dissolves chalk at a slower rate. Water alone does not chemically interact with chalk to dissolve it.
When chalk (which is calcium carbonate) is placed in vinegar (which is acetic acid), it will react to produce carbon dioxide gas, water, and calcium acetate. The carbon dioxide gas is the fizzing that you see when the two substances are combined.
Chalk consists of calcium carbonate, which is insoluble in water. Therefore, chalk does not dissolve in water but rather forms a suspension or slurry when mixed with water. The rate at which the chalk particles settle out of the water depends on factors such as particle size and water movement.

Chalk is primarily composed calcium carbonate, CaCO3. Carbonates are typically not very soluble in pure water or basic solutions, but tend to be very soluble in acidic solutions. One household item that would be useful for cleaning up chalk would be white vinegar, which is acetic acid, HCH3CO2. The acetic acid would react with the calcium carbonate to produce calcium acetate, water and carbon dioxide. CaCO3 + 2HCH3CO2 > Ca(CH3CO2)2 + H2O + CO2 The calcium acetate is soluble in water, so it would not be visible.
coke is pretty acidic, it is around pH 3.2 and since chalk is a carbonate, it undergoes the a classic acid base reaction similar to the vinegar + baking soda reaction. so it would appear to an observer like it is dissolving fasterbut i think if this is a homework question your teacher has asked a flawed question becase the chalk does not dissolve it reacts which is two different things (chemical change vs physical change)also you have to keep in mind the fact that coke is a pretty saturated solution as it has ~40g of glucose/fructose and this can affect solubility
Chalk will not dissolve in Sprite because chalk is made mostly of calcium carbonate which is not soluble in water. The chalk will remain solid and will not mix with the liquid.
No. Chalk is insoluble in water. Adding sugar will not change that.
