Rock is a combination of two or more minerals, and it does not possess any specific chemical composition. It is present naturally in the environment. Some examples of rocks are limestone, granite, etc.,Limestone may contain minerals like calcite and aragonite. Each mineral has a specific chemical composition with a well defined crystalline structure.

Therefore, the correct option would be a. rock as rock is the naturally occurring  solid mass made up of different types of minerals.

In Millikan’s experiment, the oil droplets acquire one or more negative charges by combining with the negative charges that are
zimovet [89]

Answer:

-6.4x10⁻¹⁹ C

Explanation:

The elementary charge of one electron is -1.60x10⁻¹⁹C, so each electron has its charge, and a sample with more than one electrons will have a multiple of its charge, which is proportional to the number of electrons. So, if the oil droplet had 4 electrons, thus the charge will be four times the elementary charge:

4*(-1.60x10⁻¹⁹) C = -6.4x10⁻¹⁹ C
