Making ChalkBy: Alyssia Roche
What you need to know about making
chalkThe good news about
chalk: Excellent medium for adding soft
color, aging or shading to letters,
borders, backgrounds, and
embellishments
Versatile, inexpensive, and easy to
use Doesn't dry out and never needs
sharpening (unless in pencil form)
Takes up little space
Comes in dozens of colors
Forgiving (erasable) and flexible
Great investment
Long lasting
Chalk forms from the deep marine accumulation of the plates of organisms called coccolithophores. The plates are composed of the mineral calcite.
Why Do You think people put Chalk on the end of a Pool Stick?
The reason is friction. It may seem a bit unlikely that something so outwardly minor could actually supply a fundamental force of physics such as this, but the surface roughness made by applying the chalk affects the sliding friction and the "motion-resistance" between the pool cue and the contact area on the cue ball. Ultimately, it prevents the player from a miscue, typically a faulty contact where the tip slides off the ball without the proper spread for the stroke.
The reason why people eat chalk is because they have a disorder called Pica. is a medical disorder characterized by an appetite for substances largely non-nutritive (e.g. metal, clay, coal, sand, dirt, soil, feces, chalk, pens and pencils, paper, batteries, spoons, toothbrushes, soap, mucus, ash, gum, etc. or an abnormal appetite for food ingredients flour, raw potato, raw rice, starch, ice cubes, salt.
You are advised to undergo rectal examination to rule out fissure / piles (haemmeroids) 2. With regards to the black tarry stool you have to undergo endoscopy to rule out the cause for upper gi bleed,, once in a while bloody stools are caused in ulcerative colitis for that you need to undergo coronoscopy and barium enema,, in the mean time take medicine :liquid disogel 3 times a day 8 hourly , shun from drinking , tablet Sazo :salazopyrine can also give some relief. you can also contact me directly,, info in profile.

Sodium carbonate
also known as Na2CO3 is a sodium salt
of carbonic acid. It most commonly
occurs as a crystalline heptahydrate,
which readily effloresces to form a
white powder, the monohydrate.
Sodium carbonate is domestically well
known for its everyday use as a water
softener.

Results for both experiments 1st time I did my experiment I had less salt left over , this can be a good thing it also can be a bad thing, the reason being is because I had way more chalk in my out come.
The 2ed time I did my experiment I had more salt and less chalk, I believe the reason why this happened is because the salt spilled out from it being on the burner for to long and it also being to get Hot and boiling over.
The End Chalk is a soft, white, porous sedimentary rock, a form of limestone composed of the mineral calcite. Calcite is calcium carbonate or CaCO3. It forms under relatively deep marine conditions from the gradual accumulation of minute calcite plates (coccoliths) shed from micro-organisms called coccolithophores. It is common to find chert or flint nodules embedded in chalk. Chalk can also refer to other compounds including magnesium silicate and calcium sulfate.
