Hi pinkjeans

ya,u right, 粒can use before small round things.like

一粒葡萄 a grape,but 苹果 is big,u should use 个,一个苹果。

梳 rarel use as measure word,u can say 一串香蕉 if u mean many bananas.  n if u mean one banana should say 一根香蕉,coz 根 often put before a columniform thing. btw,一个香蕉 is also ok.

n 一件beancurd is not right,it should be 一块 beancurd. u could say 一件 dress

to tell u a knack,个 is a super measure word,can used before almost anything.

橘子 often be writed as 桔子 in chinese.橘 is the formal word.suggest u use 桔子

btw,the former(橙子) often made into orangeade, though the juice always be called 橘子水.but in chinese,orangeade is translated as 橘子水,in fact its 橙子水
