my guess would be 1 gallon of water.
A gallon of water has more mass than a gallon of sand. This is because water is denser than sand, meaning it has more mass per unit volume.
I weighed a cup of sand which equalled 12.45 ounces (used 12.5 ounces for computing purposes). So, 1 gallon of sand (16 cups) equals 200 ounces or divided by 16 ounces/pound, equals 12.5 pounds/gallon.
A cup of sand, sand sinks in water, thus its heavier.
About 1.2 pounds of dry sand equals 1 pound of wet sand. When sand is wet, it typically weighs more due to the water content.
Essentially, sand is more dense and has more mass, thus it sinks. durr. hi
yes sand is heavier than water:)
both are the same ther 1 pond
water
a UK pint of water weighs a pound and a quarter.8xpints equal 1 UK gallon.answer 10lbs total weight a UK gallon of water.sand is measured in buckets not weight comparable.reckon equal weights. A UK Gallon is a unit of Volume. A UK Gallon of water weighs very close to 10 Pounds. Anything which is Denser than water, will sink when placed in it. Another way to look at is: Which is Denser; Water or Sand?You know sand sinks in water, therefore an equivalent Volume of Sand must be heavier than the same volume of water. However, the sand particles have quite a bit of air spaces between them , therefore it is possible that a cupful of sand may be almost the same weight as a cupful of water, but what you need to know is the comparable Densities, not the weights or volumes. Sand is definitely Denser than water.

They are equivalent.
Sand is heavier than water.
A cup of sand, sand sinks in water, thus its heavier.
Sand has a higher density than water, so it sinks to the bottom when placed in water due to gravity pulling it down. The sand particles are heavier and more compact than water molecules, causing them to settle at the bottom.
Nothing - sand and water do not react because sand is relatively inert. The sand will sink to the bottom of the container because it is significantly heavier than the water.
To determine how much sand is needed for a 10,000-gallon pool, it depends on the type of pool and the depth of the sand layer desired. For a standard sand filter, you typically need about 1 pound of sand for every gallon of water, translating to roughly 10,000 pounds or about 5 tons of sand. However, if you're referring to a sand base for an above-ground pool, you'll need about 2-3 inches of sand, which would require around 1-2 tons of sand, depending on the pool's dimensions.
