How will breaking chalk change the chalk?

Breaking chalk will change its physical form by creating smaller pieces, which can increase its surface area. This can affect how the chalk interacts with surfaces, making it easier to apply or use for writing and drawing. Additionally, the texture may become rougher at the break points, potentially altering the way it produces dust when used. However, the chemical composition of the chalk remains unchanged.
