Chalk is calcium carbonate. Cola is an acid. When these two compounds mixed, hydrogen carbonate is formed. This compound is water soluble, and thus chalk mixed with and acid like cola dissolves in water.
When you put chalk in a container of cola, a chemical reaction occurs between the calcium carbonate in the chalk and the phosphoric acid in the cola. This reaction produces carbon dioxide gas, which creates bubbles and causes the chalk to fizz and dissolve. The chalk will eventually break down and disappear as it reacts with the acidic cola.
Chalk, primarily composed of calcium carbonate, does not dissolve in alcohol. Instead, it is insoluble in most organic solvents, including alcohol. While some components of chalk may react with acids, the overall structure remains intact in alcoholic solutions. Thus, chalk will not dissolve in alcohol.
It typically takes several hours for sidewalk chalk to dissolve in soda, depending on the size of the chalk piece and the type of soda used. The process may be accelerated by stirring or crushing the chalk pieces.
Yes, sidewalk chalk is made of calcium carbonate which is not soluble in gasoline. The chalk would likely not dissolve but it may break down and form a sludge or residue in the gasoline. It is not recommended to mix chalk with gasoline as it can cause clogging and damage to the engine.

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.
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.
Yes lemon juice can dissolve chalk and other things like the enamel on your teeth
No, Coca-Cola will not dissolve hair!! How do i know this? Well, I actually just did my Science Fair Project to see if hair will dissolve in certain liquids and coca-cola was one of my liquids. the Coca-Cola only changed the color of the hair but it did not dissolve it. Bleach will dissolve it in a matter of hours!!
No! its insoluble
because of the acidity that is found in cola
Coca cola has citric acid
coco cola
