The density of aluminum is 2.7 g/cm3, so in doing the math, assuming the sheet is 4' x 8' x 1/4", the volume is 1152 cubic inches, or 18,878 cubic centimeters. The weight would be 51 kg, or 112 pounds.
84.8 lbs.
14.1 pounds for a 12" x 12" x 1" .
The weight is (4) times (the weight of one cubic foot of the same material).
It is the weight of two dimes * * * * * Interesting but not true. 2 US dimes = 4.536 grams 1 US quarter = 5.67 grams That is a discrepancy of 25% : not a minor difference!
The US coin "quarter" (25 cents) is 0.955" in diameter, 0.069 inches thick
One can easily calculate the weight of a 1 cm thick aluminum sheet in several ways. First, one can use a scientific scale for a very accurate measurement. Also, one can calculate the volume by submerging the sheet in water, and calculate the weight using the density of aluminum, which is 2.70 grams per cubic cm.

18.88lbs/sheet for an 1/8" thick sheet
The density of aluminum is 2.7 g/cm3, so in doing the math, assuming the sheet is 42' x 8' x 1/4", the volume is 12096 cubic inches, or 198,217.93 cubic centimeters. The weight would be 535.188411 kg, or 1177.4 pounds.
1 mil is 0.001 inches. So 10mil is 0.01 inches thick. I believe aluminum foil is about 0.5mil, so 10mil is approximately as thick as 20sheets of aluminum foil.
we can weight one sheet and calculate the unit weight we can weight one sheet and calculate the unit weight
I looked up the density of aluminum, and found 167 pounds per cubic foot.I would have preferred it per cubic inch, as that would have meant less work,but I guess I can convert it.1 cubic foot = 1,728 cubic inches.Density of aluminum = 167/1728 pound per cubic inch.Volume of the sheet = 20 x 20 x 0.25 = 100 cubic inches.Weight = 167 x 100/1,728 = 9.664 pounds
Depends how thick the paper is, and how large a sheet is.
It's a piece of cast aluminum. Aluminum conducts heat very well. Any piece of thick aluminum would work, such as an old aluminum pan (not the thin ones but the old thick ones your grandma uses). I just found one at a garage sale for a quarter.
The weight of 1 mm thick x 1000 mm x 1000 mm galvanized iron sheet is 7.85 kilogram. This is based on taking the density of the iron sheet to be 7850kg per cubic meter.
A US quarter is 1.75 mm thick. Canadian quarters are 1.58 mm thick.
