The short and unhelpful answer is, it depends how much of it you have!

In fact, it is even more variable than that. As you may know, balsa is a very light and coarse grained wood, but the density of the grain can vary greatly and this in turn affects its weight by volume (the density).

Typically the density of balsa ranges from 40 to 380 kg/m3 or 2.5 to 24 lb/f3
