How much does a yard of decomposed granite weigh?

It depends a little on just how decomposed it is, and whether it's been disturbed or not (native state or excavated and recompacted, or not recompacted), but generally, use of a unit weight of about 135 to 145 pounds per cubic foot or in the range of 3,500 to 4,000 pounds per cubic yard should suffice for estimating purposes.

Will decomposed granite harden by adding water. I am trying to use it as a filler between flagstone sidewalk and was told all I had to do was add water...Will this work?

Water does cause decomposed granite to harden, but not into anything resembling cement. Wetting and then compressing (foot traffic will do it) will pack it down. Once the sun has dried it out again, it's much, much more compact. It goes from loose sand to the consistency of packed, sun-baked dirt. When it's wet for the first time, it's like frosting or mud. After drying out for the first time, subsequent wettings won't return it to this soft state, so don't worry.
