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.

When chalk (the mineral) dissolves in water, it's called "limewater".


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


What is a chalk powder in a water it is solutionsuspension or a colloid?

When chalk powder is mixed with water, it forms a suspension. In a suspension, the particles of the chalk powder are not dissolved in the water but rather dispersed throughout, giving it a cloudy appearance. A colloid would involve smaller particles that are evenly dispersed and do not settle out over time.

How long does it take chalk to dissolve in water?

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.


Will chalk powder in water form a solution?

Chalk powder, which is composed mainly of calcium carbonate, will not form a true solution when mixed with water. Instead, it will form a suspension where the particles of chalk remain suspended in the water without fully dissolving. If left undisturbed, the chalk particles may settle at the bottom of the container over time.
