There are three measurements referred to as "ton" -

  • Short ton (2,000 lbs.)
  • Long ton (2,240 lbs.)
  • Metric ton (or tonne, 1,000 kg./2204.6226218 lbs.)
Assuming all three substances are measured in the same type of ton, they would all weigh the same - a ton is a unit of weight, not of density or area.

Which weighs more a ton of cotton or a ton of bricks?

A ton of cotton and a ton of bricks both weigh the same amount, as they are both equivalent to 2,000 pounds.

Therefore, a ton of bricks would take up less space than a ton of cotton due to their differing densities.

How many bricks are in a ton?

OK, take an average house brick (is there such a thing?) which weighs about 6 pound 8 oz (2.9K), and then using the English (long) ton which is 2240, you get approx 340 bricks to the ton I reckon -Using the US (short) ton which is 2000 pounds, there are approximately 305 bricks to the ton.As an aside, if you have a 6 yard builders skip that you are filling up you can load about 7 tons max. , that's 2380 bricks, quite few then.
