I was always tought "One pallet of block equals one yard". There are 90, 8•8•16 block on a pallet.
1.125 sq ft in 1 block
The dry weight of a medium density concrete block (215 x 450 x 100mm thick) is approximately 7.5Kg --- There are many different sizes, shapes and mixes used to make concrete block. Additionally the weight varies if the unit is wet or not since they absorb water. I see varying weights of 35 to 55 pounds for 8x8x16 block.
There are 10 concrete block per m2.

A 16 foot by 16 foot block has an area of 256 square feet. It would require 4.836 16 foot by 16 foot blocks to cover an area of 1238 square feet.
To calculate the number of 8x8x16 concrete blocks needed for a koi pond measuring 8ft x 12ft x 4ft, first determine the pond's volume, which is 8ft x 12ft x 4ft = 384 cubic feet. Each concrete block has a volume of 0.89 cubic feet (8 in x 8 in x 16 in = 1024 in³, and 1024 in³ ÷ 1728 in³/ft³ = 0.59 ft³). Dividing the pond's volume by the block's volume gives approximately 650 blocks (384 ft³ ÷ 0.59 ft³/block). However, you may need to adjust this figure based on the actual design and any openings for plumbing or aesthetics.

That is approximately 2,025 pounds of concrete
A typical 80lb bag of mortar can lay around 30 standard 8x8x16 cinder blocks, depending on the thickness of the mortar joints being used. It's recommended to follow the manufacturer's instructions on the mortar bag for the most accurate estimation.
