Snow is not uniform for density so you would have to weigh the cubic foot you are interested in.
Each pound or kilogram would be composed of 1/9 hydrogen and 8/9 oxygen (by mass) since the molecular weight of water is 18, the atomic weight of hydrogen is 1 and the atomic weight of oxygen is 16. Based on 1 cubic foot of snow being about 10% the weight of a cubic foot of water, it would weigh approximately 6.25 pounds and contain about 5.56 pounds of oxygen.

How much does a inch snow weigh?
It depends on how much you have!! One shovelful of snow, for example, weighs less than the amount of snow on your driveway. I suspect what you are really asking is not how much snow weighs but how much it weighs per cubit foot or cubic yard. Weight per unit volume is called density. But even that is tricky with respect to snow. The density of snow varies greatly. Lightly packed powder weighs very little per cubic foot, whereas slushy, wet snow can weigh over 62 pounds per cubic foot -- about the density of water.
How much to pay for snow cleaning?
The cost of snow cleaning can vary depending on factors such as the size of the area to be cleared, the location, and the amount of snowfall. On average, you can expect to pay between $50 to $150 per hour for professional snow removal services. It's best to get quotes from multiple companies to compare prices and services before making a decision.
How much rain is in 1 foot of snow?
It can vary widely. 1 inch of water can produce 2 inches of extremely wet snow or as much as 30 inches of fluffy dry snow. A rule of thumb (and this is a very general rule) is that 1 inch of water is in 10 inches of the average snowfall. To answer your question, it may be about 1.2 inches of rain using this formula.
How much snow is needed to build a thirty six foot snowman?
Assuming a snowman is built in the shape of a cone, the volume formula for a cone is V = (1/3)πr^2h. Therefore, to build a 36-foot snowman, you would need enough snow to create a cone with a base radius and height that when plugged into the formula would result in a volume sufficient to build a snowman of that size.
Does snow have hydrogen and oxygen?
Yes. Snow is made out of many molecules of water. Water is the combination of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of Oxygen (H2O).
How much water is in one cubic foot of snow?
18 cups, 4.5 quarts. A good average to figuring out snow to water ratio is 12-1. So there 1/12 of a cubic foot of snow will be the volume of water. An ounce is 1 inch sq. 12x12 is 144 cubic inches of water. 144 divided by 8 ounces to a cup is 18 cups. There fore 4.5 quarts.
If you have a 1500 sq ft home and there is 1 ft of snow on the roof how much weight is on the roof?
You need to know how much a cubic foot of snow weighs. It depends on the sort of snow. There is 1500 cu ft of snow on the roof.

What is the weight of one cubic foot of snow?
It depends on what the soil contains. It may contain sand or gravel. It may contain water. It may contain little or much organic material. It may be highly or loosely compacted. On the average, however, the density of ideal topsoil is about 1.25 grams per cubic centimeter, or about 78 pounds per cubic foot.
How many gallons of water is in one cubic foot of compacted snow?
If it's heavily compacted snow, then one cubic foot weighs in at about 25 lbs. At 8 lbs to the quart, you are looking at less than a gallon of water. Closer to 3 quarts of water.
How much cubic yard of snow weigh?
On average, a cubic yard of snow can weigh anywhere from 500 to 800 pounds, depending on factors such as snow density and moisture content.
How much does one square foot of water weigh?
It turns out that square feet are a measure of area and as such are two-dimensional quantifier. A square foot of anything will weigh nothing because the material, the air or lead or anything else, will be 12 inches long by 12 inches wide by zero inches thick. If it was a cubic foot of air, i.e., a volume of air occupying a space 12" x 12" x 12", it would weigh about 0.08 pounds at standard temperature and pressure.
How much nitrogen is in a cubic foot of snow?
That's going to depend on the density, i.e. the water content of the snow. Themore dense snow will have less nitrogen, since there's no nitrogen in water at all,only in the air, of which there's more in fluffy snow than in the heavier kind.
How many cubic feet of snow per gallon of water?
On average, 1 gallon of water would convert to roughly 0.133 cubic feet of snow if the snow's density is around 20 pounds per cubic foot. However, the exact conversion can vary based on factors such as the snow's density, moisture content, and temperature.
How much does a cubic foot of snow weigh melted?
Melted snow is water. Water, because it is a liquid, is hard to weigh as you normally only weigh solids. Liquids would have to be measured litres or gallons. So the answer to that question would depend on how much snow had actually melted- eg. 12% ice and 78 % is water and 10% is debris caught in the snow as it fell
How to convert cubic feet of snow to gallons of water?
It is estimated that 10 to 12 inches of snow melts to about 1 inch of water, which is 1/10 to 1/12 of its original volume. 1 cubic foot of snow would melt down to between 144 (12 x 12 x 12 / 12) and 172.8 (12 x 12 x 12 / 10) cubic inches of water. 144 cubic inches = 2.36 liters and 172.8 cubic inches = 2.83 liters. 1 U.S. gallon = 3.7854 liters, so 1 cubic foot of snow would melt down to between (2.36/3.7854) and (2.83/3.7854) gallons, or about 5/8 to 3/4 of a gallon of water.
