What is heavier bottle of water or cup of water?
A cup of sand, sand sinks in water, thus its heavier.
How much does a gallon of wet sand weigh?
I weighed a cup of sand which equalled 12.45 ounces (used 12.5 ounces for computing purposes). So, 1 gallon of sand (16 cups) equals 200 ounces or divided by 16 ounces/pound, equals 12.5 pounds/gallon.
Which has more mass a gallon of water or sand?
They have same mass
What is heavier a cup of water or a cup of sand?
The mass of a volume of a material depends on its density. A cup of water is likely to have less mass than a cup of sand, because the density of rock is generally much greater than water, and sand is fine particles of rock.Sand can be packed into a cup at different densities, but even if only lightly poured into the cup, the air between the sand particles will not be sufficient to make the density lighter than that of water, as most rock is at least twice as dense as water.Some rocks are apparently less dense than water: they even float! But, this is because they have trapped air bubbles in them which lighten them, and once ground into sand, they will be much denser as the air is no longer trapped within the rock.Some examples of densities are:water 1 g/cm3granite 2.7 g/cm3sandstone 2.3 g/cm3
Is water more dense than mud?
No, because mud is a mixture of water and dirt, which is denser than water, so the average density is greater than water. However, water tends to mix with mud, which may give the illusion that it is more dense.
Is sand heavier than water?
yes sand is heavier than water:)
What is heavier bottle of water or cup of water?
A cup of sand, sand sinks in water, thus its heavier.
What is heavier a pound of feathers or a pound of sand?
both are the same ther 1 pond
What heavier sand or water?
water
Which weighs more sand or water?
a UK pint of water weighs a pound and a quarter.8xpints equal 1 UK gallon.answer 10lbs total weight a UK gallon of water.sand is measured in buckets not weight comparable.reckon equal weights. A UK Gallon is a unit of Volume. A UK Gallon of water weighs very close to 10 Pounds. Anything which is Denser than water, will sink when placed in it. Another way to look at is: Which is Denser; Water or Sand?You know sand sinks in water, therefore an equivalent Volume of Sand must be heavier than the same volume of water. However, the sand particles have quite a bit of air spaces between them , therefore it is possible that a cupful of sand may be almost the same weight as a cupful of water, but what you need to know is the comparable Densities, not the weights or volumes. Sand is definitely Denser than water.
Why does sand sink to the bottom of water?
because the sand is thicker than the water and the sand absorbs the water makeing the sand heavier, allowing it to sink.

Which weighs more 5 gal of sand or 5 gal water?
Sand is heavier than water.
Which weighs more - a pound of water or a pound of sand?
They are equivalent.
What happen when sand mixed with water?
Nothing - sand and water do not react because sand is relatively inert. The sand will sink to the bottom of the container because it is significantly heavier than the water.
When you add sand to water why does the sand settle at the bottom of the water?
Sand is heavier then water (denser) so it sinks. If you add oil to water, oil is less dense (lighter) than water so it floats.
Which has more mass a gallon of water or sand?
They have same mass
