What happens when you put a rock in a microwave?

In: Science
[Edit]

Answer

Depends entirely on the composition of the rock itself. If there is little metal content or water then nothing will happen, the same as a ceramic dish for example. A pourus rock with water content may actually warm up and a rock with high concentrations of conductive metals may cause sparking.

Answer

Try it and see, it's called scientific experimentation.
