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.
Blackboard chalk is natural white chalk that has been ground up and then processed into short rods that is then used to write or draw on a blackboard - usually in a school, or a noticeboard. Various coloured chalks are available.
It is gypsum (aka calcium sulfate) but often people call it "chalk" although it isn't the natural chalk you see on cliff sides.
Calcium Carbonate => CaCO3

Chalk is used on the black board because chalk is easy to write with on a black board.

Primarily calcium carbonate, derived from the skeletons of very small ancient marine organisms.chalk is made up of calcium powder and calcium carbonate."Blackboard and sidewalk chalk were originally made from the sedimentary rock of the same name; a form of soft limestone. Chalk, composed principally of calcium carbonate (CaCO3), formed underwater by slow accumulation and compression of the calcite shells of single-celledcoccolithophores."
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.
YEP!
Its regular chalk made by the Crayola corporation. The chalk is also larger in diameter than chalk for a blackboard to make it sturdier.
If you mean blackboard chalk, it is generally made of the mineral gypsum, which is calcium sulfate.
Blackboards are not scratched by chalk because chalk is softer than the material from which the blackboard is constructed. Sand scratches blackboards because it is harder than the material from which a blackboard is made.

No. Blackboard chalk is calcium sulfate, also known as gypsum. Cliff chalk is calcium carbonate, also known as calcite or limestone.
Chalk
A blackboard is a smooth, dark surface typically made of slate or a similar material, used for writing or drawing with chalk. It is commonly found in classrooms and other educational settings.
Nature's chalk is limestone--hard. Blackboard chalk is soft--gypsum.
