The correct option that best describes hydrolysis is: water reacting chemically with minerals in rock.
Hydrolysis is a chemical reaction that involves the breaking of a chemical bond in a compound by the addition of water. In the case of hydrolysis of minerals in rock, water reacts with the minerals and causes them to break down into different substances. This reaction is commonly seen in weathering processes where water breaks down minerals and rocks over time.
