Does marble have interlocking grains?
Limestone grains are interlocking. The simple test to see if a rock's grains are interlocking is to put a drop of water on the surface. If the rock is interlocking, the water will remain on the surface. If it is not interlocking, the water will start to percolate through the rock. :).

Is sandstone igneous or sedimentary or metamorphic?
Sandstone is a sedimentary rock which is made up of sand grains which have been compressed to form a rock that has very weak bonds holding the grains together. The grains themselves can be igneous, sedimentary or metamorphic depending on which rock the grains were eroded from.
Is sedimentary rock sandy?
Not necessarily. There is a special class of sedmentary rocks, called sandstones, which are dominated by sand-sized grains. Other sedimentary rocks, such as shale, contain much finer grains.
Does granite have rounded grains?
