A rock is not a type of mineral. Rocks are made up of one or more minerals, which are naturally occurring inorganic solid substances with a specific chemical composition and crystal structure. Minerals are the building blocks of rocks.
There are more than two rocks, or rock types to be found in the oceans. You question needs to be more specific for us to answer it.
Yes, a rock can be made of a single mineral. For example, a rock composed entirely of the mineral quartz is called quartzite. Rocks consisting of only one mineral are known as monomineralic rocks.
Rocks that leave chalky or powdery markings are likely to be limestone or chalk, which are composed mainly of the mineral calcite. When these rocks are scratched or rubbed against a surface, they leave behind a powdery residue due to the softness of the calcite mineral.
They are divided into puddingstone and somipone. Puddingstone is made of tiny minerals but somipone is made up of HUGE minerals.
A rock is made of 2 or more minerals, minerals make up rocks but rocks cannot make up minerals.
no, Pyroxene is a Mineral not a rock. Rocks are made up of 2 or more minerals
Rocks are solid substainces that are made of 2 or more minerals and can have organic matter in them as well. On the other hand, minerals are naturally formed inorganic solids that have definite crystalline structures. Rocks and minerals are made through different processes.

The rocks you see around you - the mountains, canyons & riverbeds, are all made of minerals. A rock is made up of 2 or more minerals. Think of a chocolate chip cookie as a rock. The cookie is made of flour, butter, sugar & chocolate. The cookie is like a rock and the flour, butter, sugar & chocolate are like minerals. You need minerals to make rocks, but you don't need rocks to make minerals. All rocks are made of minerals.

they are made from no.2
No. Air is mostly made of nitrogen and oxygen. Water vapor only a small percentage, no more than 4% and usually only about 2%.
