Sand is not a compound and haven't a molar mass; also different types of sand exist.
That's uncountable. But there is a guess. Here's the quote: "Jason Marshall, aka, the Math Dude. According to Jason, there about 700 trillion cubic meters of beach of Earth, and that works out to around 5 sextillion grains of sand. ... But more likely, there are 5 to 10 times more stars than there are grains of sand on all the world's beaches" [Universe Today] And there you are 5 sextillion grains of sand total on all the beaches of the planet. That's a 5 with 21 zeros behind it.
It is estimated that there are approximately 41 million grains of sand in a gallon. This number can vary depending on the size and shape of the sand grains.
too many to count!
