Yes, chalk on a blackboard can acquire an electrostatic charge when written or moved on the surface, due to friction between the chalk and the board. This charge can attract or repel other objects nearby.
A chalk stick is used for writing on a blackboard.
Chalk is made of calcium carbonate, a soft mineral that leaves a visible mark when drawn on a rough surface like a blackboard. When drawn on the blackboard, chalk particles rub off and stick to the surface due to friction, creating a visible line.
A chalkboard is a piece of slate on which to write with chalk and is named after the color "black".
Well you see, as the chalk rubs against the blackboard bits of it get left behind, showing you what your teacher thinks your cursive should look like, or a new trick when dividing big numbers.
With every stroke of the chalk piece it leaves some of the chalk on the board. This abrasion of the piece of chalk causes it to wear down. This is similar to why the rubber tyres of cars wear down when they are driven over a road surface.
The attraction between unlike molecules, such as chalk and a blackboard, is primarily due to electrostatic forces. When chalk is rubbed on a blackboard, it can create a transfer of electrons, leading to the buildup of static charges. This charge difference generates an attractive force between the two surfaces, allowing the chalk to adhere to the blackboard. Additionally, van der Waals forces may also play a role in the interaction between these materials.

Blackboard chalk is composed of calcium carbonate.
No. Blackboard chalk is calcium sulfate, also known as gypsum. Cliff chalk is calcium carbonate, also known as calcite or limestone.

A chalkboard is a piece of slate on which to write with chalk and is named after the color "black".
Blackboards are typically made of a material that is softer than chalk, such as slate or porcelain. When you write on a blackboard with chalk, the friction between the chalk and the board causes the chalk to wear down and leave behind tiny particles of sand or abrasive material embedded in the chalk. These abrasive particles then scratch the surface of the blackboard as you write, creating marks that can be difficult to erase.

Chalk
Chalk is a form of calcium carbonate, so chalk dust is also a form of calcium carbonate.
