18 pounds
No one else agrees. 30 to 35 pounds for typical hollow block, and about 70 pounds for solid is the figure cited by most block manufacturers.
I was always tought "One pallet of block equals one yard". There are 90, 8•8•16 block on a pallet.
8 x 8 x 16 = 1,024 cubic inches.
The weight of concrete hollow blocks can vary depending on their size and density, but on average, a standard concrete hollow block weighs between 25 to 35 pounds (11 to 16 kg). Therefore, six concrete hollow blocks would typically weigh between 150 to 210 pounds (68 to 95 kg). It's important to check the specifications of the specific blocks being used for a more accurate weight.
The weight of a 6-inch concrete hollow block typically ranges from 28 to 36 pounds (approximately 13 to 16 kg), depending on the specific mix and density of the concrete used. These blocks are designed to be both strong and lightweight, making them a popular choice in construction. Variations in manufacturing processes and materials can slightly affect the weight.
To determine how many 8x6x16 concrete blocks a yard of concrete will fill, first calculate the volume of one block. The volume of an 8x6x16 block is 0.5 cubic feet (8 inches = 0.67 feet, 6 inches = 0.5 feet, 16 inches = 1.33 feet; thus, the volume = 0.67 x 0.5 x 1.33 = 0.447 cubic feet). Since there are 27 cubic feet in a yard of concrete, divide 27 by 0.5, which equals 54. Therefore, a yard of concrete can fill approximately 54 blocks.

Have cement truck come and pour you some
Concrete weighs about 150#'s per cubic foot. Given that your measurements are 2'x2'x4', the block contains about 16 cubic feet. 16 cubic feet of concrete at 150#'s is about 2400#'s per block.
It weighs 59 lbs. There is a difference between a "real" cinder block and a concrete block. A cinder block uses cinders--ash from the burning of coal--as its aggregate. Concrete blocks are made from concrete. Concrete block is far stronger than is cinder block, and some jurisdictions prohibit the use of cinder block. The only justification for cinder block is that it weighs less than concrete block, which is important if the ground you're building on isn't strong enough to support a heavy structure. This justification has gone away, because now you can buy concrete block made from expanded-shale aggregate that's as light as cinder block and as strong as standard-weight concrete masonry.
The standard concrete building block for load-bearing walls is 8 x 8 x 16

A standard concrete block in the US is 16 inches long, 8 inches tall, and 4 inches wide.
Without the size opf the block, if is not possible tell the weight,
I was always tought "One pallet of block equals one yard". There are 90, 8•8•16 block on a pallet.
The standard 6 by 8 by 16 cinder block weighs 28 pounds. They have a compression strength of 1900 psi.
