It depends on the intensity of the tornado. Weak tornadoes (EF0 and EF1) can topple trees, destroy sheds and barns, and severely damage or mostly destroy trailers. Stronger structures will sutain mild to moderate damage. Strong tornadoes (EF2 and EF3) will obliterate trailers and many weak structures. Many houses may be mostly destroyed by an EF3. Violent tornadoes (EF4 and EF5) will destroy even the strongest buildings, with an EF5 leaving behind nothing but a bare foundation of most houses.
Tornadoes can destroy as much houses as it can depending on the length of their path. Most tornadoes are too weak to destroy houses, causing mostly superficial damage. However, in the works cases a tornado can destroy thousands of houses.
There have been many tornadoes in Arkansas. However, given the timing, you presumeably mean the tornado that struck the towns of Mayflower and Vilonia on April 27, 2014. That tornado killed 16 people.
Tornadoes can destroy structures and vegetation for several miles within their path, with the most intense damage typically occurring in a concentrated area of around one mile wide or less. The total extent of destruction can vary widely depending on the tornado's intensity and duration.

It was 17,500 buildings.
Tornado Alley itself is not destructive, but the tornadoes that frequent it can be. The tornadoes in Tornado Alley destroy many homes each year.

There have been many firewhirls, most of which did not affect people or human utilities. Firewhirls generally cause damage by spreading fire, which can destroy buildings such as sanitation centers.

The time it takes for a tornado to destroy something can vary depending on the tornado's intensity, size, and the durability of the object. In many cases, a tornado can cause significant damage within seconds to minutes as it passes through an area.
Chalk is water soluble. Which means rain would destroy the building.
