None of the above. Marble is a metamorphic rock.
Chalk is non-clastic, as it is primarily composed of the mineral calcite (calcium carbonate) formed from the remains of microscopic marine organisms such as plankton. These organisms contribute to the fine-grained texture of chalk through chemical precipitation rather than mechanical weathering or erosion.
The basic division of sedimentary rocks is into clastic and chemical rocks. Clastic rocks are formed when grains form a sediment and are then cemented together, as happens with sandstone or shale. Chemical rocks form when solid precipitates out of solution, for instance when calcium carbonate is formed from sea water to give chalk.
Chalk is a biochemical sedimentary rock, formed mainly from the calcareous remains of microscopic marine organisms like plankton. It is primarily composed of calcium carbonate and is often found in extensive deposits in areas that were once covered by ancient seas.
Chalk and coal are examples of biochemical sedimentary rocks. Biochemical sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation and compression of organic remains such as shells, coral, or plant material.
Chalk and coal are examples of a kind of sedimentary rock called biochemical sedimentary rock. Biochemical sedimentary rocks form from the accumulation and lithification of organic remains, such as shells and plant material.
It is clastic
Chemical: Minerals were dissolved in water to form it. Organic: Formed from the remains of living things. Clastic: Formed form bits of other rocks.

Chemical rocks form when solid precipitates out of solution, for instance when calcium carbonate is formed from sea water to give chalk.
Clastic (or detrital): Sedimentary rock formed from particles of other sedimentary, metamorphic, or igneous rock which has been weathered, eroded, deposited, compacted and cemented. Examples of clastic sedimentary rock include shale, sandstone, mudstone, and conglomerate.Chemical: Chemical sedimentary rocks have intergrown mineral crystals that are precipitated from saturated aqueous solutions and chemical residues. The precipitated minerals that are commonly included are halite, quartz, limonite, calcite, chert, dolomite, hematite, and gypsum; consequently, common chemical rocks are limestone, chert, and rock gypsum.Organic:Organic sedimentary rock is rock that is derived or generated from sediments that are produced by organisms. Coal and chalk are examples of organic sedimentary rock.

Limestone and chalk are formed from organic material Limestone - Clastic shell fragments Chalk - Microscopic shells of calicum carbonate plates formed by single celled algaes Chert - Microscopic siliceous organisms, recrystallized silica

Coal and chalk.
Chalk is a type of limestone. Limestone and coal are both organic sedimentary rocks.
