There are two different types of concrete; normal and lightweight. Normal concrete has a weight of 4,000 pounds per cubic yard, while lightweight concrete weighs 1,000 pounds per cubic yard less.
Concrete weighs about 150 pounds per cubic foot. This is a design figure, and it is subject to some variation. That translates to just over 2400 kilograms per cubic metre (2400kg/m3) or 24 kilonewtons per cubic metre (24 kN/m3).
1 kg = 10N
Depends on a number of things, but roughly 150 pounds for a cubic foot.
Plain concrete weight is 140Lbs/cu ft
PCC in construction refers to Plain Cement Concrete, which is used as a preparatory base for laying RCC footing. Though PCC is also concrete, this is lean in nature, the ratio being 1:4:8. The compressive strength achieved with this mix is normally 7.5kN/sq.mm.
cement fine aggregates and course aggregates and water for the hydration of cement are the main component of plain cement concrete. and for RCC M-S bars are used with these component.
A plain concrete with a large ratio aggregate to cement than structural concrete. It is used for filling and not structural duties
Concrete actually contains cement as well as sand and gravel. We say "cement concrete" because cement is an ingredient in concrete. And because the cement is what binds together the sand and gravel that make up the concrete.

Aggregate, Ordinary Portland Cement, sand, water
RCC is Reinforced Cement Concrete. PCC is Plain Cement Concrete. The main difference is that PCC has no reinforcement in it.

Ordinary Portland cement is suitable. As per IRC 21, Portland Pozzolana Cement is limited for Plain Concrete only.
cement fine aggregates and course aggregates and water for the hydration of cement are the main component of plain cement concrete. and for RCC M-S bars are used with these component.
For plain cement concrete, the aggregate used is of size 20 mm. For RCC structures, it is 40mm and for roads, it is 80mm

1:2:4
no, it will weigh heavier because it will dry into cement when mixed with water and the weight of water will add to the weight of the concrete.
sand=2*Weight of Cement water=cement/2
PCC is plain cement concrete. It consists of cement, sand, aggregates and water. It is good at resisting compression. RCC is reinforced cement concrete. It consists of cement, steel, aggregate and water. It is good at resisting tensile stresses also.
cement is binding material while concreat is an homogeneous mixtur of cement sand and soil water etc.
