842 pounds (382 kg) combined total from all Apollo missions.
All of the missions that actually landed brought back moon rocks . These were the missions of Apollo 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17. The Apollo 17 mission was of particular importance geologically, because one of the astronauts, Harrison Schmidt, was a geologist.
The Apollo missions brought back a total of 382 kilograms (842 pounds) of rocks and soil samples from the Moon.
The lunar rocks brought back by the Apollo missions were estimated to be around 3.9 billion years old. These rock samples provided valuable insights into the early formation and history of the moon.
Approximately 382 kilograms (842 pounds) of moon rocks were brought back by the Apollo astronauts during the six successful moon landing missions.

Yes. There are rocks on the moon. Some were retrieved by the Apollo missions.
No, there is overwhelming evidence, including moon rocks brought back during the Apollo missions, that confirm NASA's successful missions to the moon. Multiple countries and independent organizations have also tracked and verified the Apollo missions.
