A pound is weight and a cup is volume. Two different measures. It would be apprx. 2 cups
You're trying to compare weight and volume. It doesn't really work properly. A pound is 16 ounces, and a cup is 8 fluid ounces, so you would expect a pound to be 2 cups. The problem is that the density of the sugar is a variable. If you pack the sugar into the measuring cup, it will weigh more, thereby coming out to more than a pound in weight.
A pound is a weight measure, not a volume measure. So you would just pour the powdered sugar into a container on a scale to come up to one pound (allowing for the container), or just buy/obtain a one-pound box.

Sand typically weighs more than sugar due to its higher density. Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume, so materials with higher density will weigh more than those with lower density. Sand is made up of larger, heavier particles compared to the finer, lighter particles of sugar, resulting in sand being heavier.
