The answer to this can be found in Exodus 32. After receiving from God the tablets into which were carved the Ten Commandments, Moses came down from Mount Sinai. He found the Israelites worshipping an idol, since the people had given up on Moses ever returning. Moses threw the tablets to the ground and crushed them. He then mixed the crushed tablets with water and made the Israelites drink down the resulting mixture.

According to the Bible, yes. Moses was given them the first time in Exodus 31:18 and when he came down from the mountain the Israelites were breaking all the commandments so he threw the stone tablets down and broke them -- Exodus 32:19. Moses later went up on the mountain and received the re-written commandments in Exodus 34. Exodus 34:1 And the LORD said unto Moses, Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first: and I will write upon these tables the words that were in the first tables, which thou brakest. Exodus 34:29 And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two tables of testimony in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moses wist not that the skin of his face shone while he talked with him. === ===
