How much oxygen is in one cubic foot of snow?

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.


Weight of 40 yard dump truck Weight loaded with 40 yards of soil Weight loaded with 40 yards of concrete?

Don't know the weight of the truck alone -- google it. Concrete (wet) could be assumed to be 145 pounds per cubic foot, and there are 27 cubic feet in one cubic yard. Compacted damp to dry soil (at "optimum moisture" for compacting) might run around 110 to 120 pounds per cubic foot, and loose soil would be considerably less (assuming it's dry and not saturated).


How much does 1 cubic foot of rock weigh?

How do you convert cubic foot per hour to btu per hour?

This is a type mismatch since BTU (or at least the only BTU I know of), standing for British Thermal Unit, is a measure of heat energy, whilst cubic meters are a measure of volume.It is possible to express energy as pressure x volume however:1 BTU is approx 1055 Joules of energy => 1055 Pa/m2.For more information on these two terms, take a look at:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_thermal_unithttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule
