Short Answer: About 50 lbs per foot square by 4" slab
Detailed Calculation:
A number of references online give the density of concrete as 2400 Kg/m^3 which is about the density of solid limestone often used as the agregate in concrete. Given that there are exactly 2.20462262 lbs per kilogram and 39.3700787 inches per meter that works out to about 0.0867 lbs per cubic inch.
Assuming you meant a 12" by 12" by 4" slab that is 576 cubic inches times .0867 which works out to 49.94 lbs per 12" x 12" x 4" slab
So in the future it should be easy to remember that a square foot of concrete that is four inches thick weighs about 50 pounds.
Keep in mind that different types of concrete may vary in density depending on the type of cement used, amount of water, type and size of aggregate mixed in how much sand etc. Fortunately most type of stone and sand used for concrete are pretty close in density and the excess water in the mix will evaporate. So 50 pounds per square foot 4" deep is probably a good estimate in most cases as long as there isn't a lot of steel reinforcing bar or wire embedded in the concrete. Steel is about three times as dense as stone.

How many bags of concrete to pour 10 foot by 10 foot space?
Depends on how thick the slab is, but 4" thick (.33 or 1/3 of a foot thick) would be typical. So multiply 10 x 10 = 100 square feet of area times .33(thickness in feet) equals 33 cubic feet. A 90 lb. bag contains about .66(two thirds) of a cubic foot of concrete, so you would need about 1 1/2 bags per cubic foot or 50 bags for 10'x10'x4"

How much does concrete weigh per inch?
On average, concrete weighs about 12.5 pounds per square foot per inch thick. This can vary based on the type and density of the concrete mix.
How much would Sq ft of concrete weigh 4 inches thick?
To calculate the weight of concrete per square foot at a thickness of 4 inches, you first need to know that concrete weighs approximately 150 pounds per cubic foot. A 4-inch thickness is one-third of a foot, so you multiply 150 pounds by 1/3, resulting in about 50 pounds per square foot. Therefore, 1 square foot of concrete that is 4 inches thick weighs approximately 50 pounds.
How much does a square foot of granite 1 inch THICK weigh?
It would weigh about 14.3 pounds .
How much does 30 square foot of concrete weigh?
It is all dependant on how thick the concrete is. You take the square footage and turn that into cubed feet (where the thickness comes in) if its 1" thick you multiply the square footage by.083, if its 2" thick you multiply by.17. To come up with this number you take the thickness say 3" and divide that by 12 (12 inches in a foot), so for 3 inches you get .25. So back to the question at hand, say your 30 square feet of concrete is 6 inches thick, your equation would look like this: 30 X .5 = 15. So 15 is your cubed footage. You then multiply this number by 150 which is the weight in pounds of 1 cubic foot of concrete. The number you come up with is 2,250. That is the amount in pounds of your 30 square feet of concrete assuming it is 6 inches thick.
What is the weight of a square foot in concrete?
A square foot of concrete has no weight because a square foot has no thickness. A cubic foot of concrete would weigh 65 Kg (143 lb) If you ASSUMED that concrete driveways, paths, etc. are all the same thickness , which they are NOT, then let us say they are 4 inch thick (10cm) In that case, then 1Square Ft of Concrete would weigh one third of the figure given above. Therefore it weighs 48 lb which is the same as 22 Kg.. Density of Concrete is 34.4 gram per cubic Inch or 1.216 ounce per cubic inch. (since you seem to be wanting to use Imperial measure)

How many pounds are ina square foot of concrete?
The weight of concrete typically ranges from 140 to 150 pounds per cubic foot. To determine the weight per square foot, you must consider the thickness of the concrete slab. For example, a standard 4-inch thick slab of concrete weighs approximately 40 to 50 pounds per square foot, as there are 3 inches in a quarter of a foot.

How much does 1.5 of concrete weigh per square foot?
Concrete typically weighs about 150 pounds per cubic foot. To find the weight of 1.5 inches of concrete per square foot, first convert 1.5 inches to feet, which is 0.125 feet. Then, multiply the thickness by the weight of concrete: 0.125 feet x 150 pounds/cubic foot = approximately 18.75 pounds per square foot.
How much does a square meter of concrete weigh?
