About 4 grams.
If you mean 4x8 x 3/8 -then its about 38 pounds.
1" drywall weighs approximately 3.4 pounds per square foot.
Approximately 82 pounds.
Let 'x' be the total weight of 100 screws in box 'A' therefore, average weight of 100 screws in box 'A' = (x / 100) = 10.4 => x = 100*10.4 = 1040 gms ............ (1) Let 'y' be the total weight of 150 screws in box 'B', therefore, average weight of 150 screws in box 'B' = (y / 150) .......... (2) After mixing 100 screws of 'A' and 150 screws of 'B', average weight of 250 screws = (x+y)/250 = 10.9 => x+y = 250*10.9 = 2725 => 1040+y = 2725 => y = 2725 - 1040 = 1685 => total weight of 150 screws of box 'B', y = 1685 gms Substitute y = 1685 in eqn (2), => average weight of screws of box 'B' = 1685/150 = 11.23 gms (approx) Hence, average weight of screws of box 'B' = 11.23 gms SHORT ANSWER """"""""""""""""" Given data: No. of screws in box 'A', NA = 100 No. of screws in box 'B', NB = 150 Average weight of 100 screws in box 'A', XA = 10.4 gms Average weight of mixed screws, XAB = 10.9 gms Average weight of 150 screws in box 'B', XB = ?

yes drywall is an insulator
How big of a box? They are normally sold by weight.
Length will vary from 1" to 1-3/4" for various thicknesses of drywall and application types.
You can use drywall nails or drywall screws. I prefer the screws.
You can use drywall nails (ridged) or drywall screws. I am not a drywaller, but have done lots of it and prefer the screws.
You cannot just hang LED TVs on the wall with screws alone. The screws will pull out of the drywall and the television will fall to the ground. To keep this from happening, you need to use wall anchors instead. These are made of plastic, and you can put them into the drywall. You can then put the screws into the anchors. This will make sure that the weight of the television does not cause it to fall.
Commonly #6 gauge.

Metal drywall screws are usually fit with a small plastic pre-grooved sheath which taps the screw into the drywall and wooden beam behind it. This results in a clean and secure penetration of the wood for each screw.
The most commonly used are #6.
Yes, that is exactly their purpose.
No, they are adequate for many uses.
They evolved in the 1970's .
