Hey
Hope you are doing well
Chalk'smain component is CaCO3 , calcium carbonate. Thesolubilityof calcium carbonate is extremely low inwater, so therefore an extremely minute amount of CaCO3 is able todissolvein a normal amount ofwater. The rest would remain solid, classifying it as mostlyinsoluble in water

Good luck

Hello,

Chalk is insoluble in water.It comprises of CaCO3 and as the Ca and Carbonate bond are very tightly bonded with each other and thus chalk remain in its crystal structure when you put in water.

Hope it helps!
