There are 643 blocks with each block having its own texture, behavior, and uses. Some blocks are opaque and fill the entire space of the grid, while other blocks are semi-transparent and not entirely solid. There are some special rules for particular blocks and therefore some blocks have special properties. Simply selecting the block in your Hotbar and right-clicking will place the block as long as the block is allowed to be there.
Minecraft is a three-dimensional game. There are three different planes of dimension and blocks that occupy this space. The three dimensions form a grid that typically one block will occupy. Of course, there are a few exceptions such as slabs or layers of snow. Blocks and fluids make up the entirety of Minecraft worlds. Some blocks are opaque and fill the entire space of the grid-like stone or dirt blocks. Other blocks are semi-transparent and not entirely solid like tall grass or flowers.
There are some special rules for particular blocks and therefore some blocks have special properties. Air is a block in Minecraft that is fully transparent, unbreakable, and acts as a substitute for empty space. Other blocks are affected by gravity, like gravel or sand, and will fall downwards until they reach something they can land on.
Some blocks will emit light like torches, glowstone, or sea pickles. The amount of light they give off varies and opaque blocks will block light whereas transparent blocks will have no effect or weaken the light.
These blocks are made from wood and have the potential to catch on fire and burn down. Wood blocks are typically mined by an axe.

Simply selecting the block in your Hotbar and right-clicking will place the block as long as the block is allowed to be there. Some blocks like sand or gravel will fall if placed on the side of a cliff. Other blocks like tall grass can only be placed on dirt blocks.
Minecraft is not a perfect game and sometimes blocks can be found generated in wrong situations that do not fit along with the block’s properties and will adjust itself when the block is updated.
It is hard to narrow it down to one singular block but it would most likely be the grass block. The grass block has long since been Minecraft’s image on desktops and phones alike. The iconic block represents Minecraft in a way and despite not being many players' first choice, it is very recognizable.
The dragon egg is the rarest block in Minecraft. It may be fairly common as many players seek to hunt the Ender Dragon, however, only one dragon egg exists in a natural world. Of course, through commands or creative menus, you can have more than one, but its exclusivity makes it one of the rarest blocks in Minecraft.
A fully powered beacon requires 1476 iron, gold, emerald, diamond, or netherite blocks to function at max capacity.
The first three Minecraft blocks ever introduced to the game were air, cobblestone, and grass blocks. These blocks were the stepping stones to introducing hundreds of other blocks into the game.
