How many tons in one square meter of soil?

You mean a cubic metre. It depends on the type of soil and how wet it is. Sand, wet - 1.92 tonne/cubic metre Sand, wet, packed - 2.08 tonne/cubic metre Sand, dry - 1.60 tonne/cubic metre Sand, loose - 1.44 tonne/cubic metre Sand, rammed - 1.68 tonne/cubic metre You can measure it yourself on a small scale, because gram/cubic centimetre is the same as tonne/cubic metre. So one cc of wet sand weighs about 1.92 grams.


How much does sandstone weigh?

The weight of sandstone can vary depending on its density, with an average range of 2,200 to 2,600 kilograms per cubic meter. You can calculate the weight of a specific piece of sandstone by determining its volume in cubic meters and then multiplying it by the density.

How much area would a billion grains of sand fill?

If fine sand has roughly 100,000 grains per cubic inch, then I make that 5.8 cubic feet (or about 43 liquid gallons). In terms of AREA, that would depend on how thick you spread out that sand. In very rough terms, I would say it would take up about 9 normal buckets. (average bucket size is about 5 gallons) (1 cubic foot = (12x12x12) cubic inches = 1728 cubic inches) Therefore, 1 cubic foot contains 1728 x 100000 fine grains = 172800000 1000000000 / 172800000 = 0.1728 1 / 0.1728 = 5.787


Which is harder to compact sand or clay?

Clay:It contains fine particles. It has the capacity to hold water. It doesn't hold air. Therefore it is very heavy in weight.Sand:It contains large particles. It has large spaces in between them. It can retain water. Therefore it is light in weight.
