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.
Which has a greater density a cubic meter of snow or cubic meter of wood or cubic meter of gold or cubic meter of feathers packed tightly?
Gold.
What is the weight of cubic meter of snow?
It varies, but we can make an estimate based on the weight of water and how much water is contained in 'fresh fall' snow. Water weighs 1000Kg per cubic meter (at 4 degrees Celsius), and 'fresh fall' snow melted to water becomes approximately 1/10th its original volume. So, we can estimate that a cubic meter of snow weighs about 1/10th that of water = 100Kg. However, snow is just elaborate ice crystals, and so these will change form many times depending on temperature and time, so a cubic meter of snow may become heavier as time passes due to compacting ice crystals. Still, it pays to knock all the snow and ice off your car, as it will always contain some sort of weight, and will reduce fuel economy because of this.
What is the weight of snow per cubic meter?

Which has a greater density .33 cubic meter of snow or .67 cubic meter of air or .625 cubic meter of a book or .375 cubic meter of feathers packed tightly or .125 cubic meter of lead?
The lead is more dense. Just so you know the volumes listed before each material are irrelevant - each one theoretically has a constant density no matter how much of it there is.
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 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 gallons of water does a cubic yard of snow melt down to?
Freshly fallen snow has a density of approx 50 kg per cubic metre but for compacted snow the density can increase to 200 kg per cubic metre. So the answer will depend on the kind of snow you are asking about.
65.5 cm of snow How much did it snow in meters?
.655 Meters1 meter=100 centimeters
How much is the amount of snow of 1972 Iran blizzard?
8 meter
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 do you figure out the weight of snow on a deck?
The best way would be to remove a square foot of it (assuming you know the area of your deck in square feet) and put all the snow in a container. Then you can either wait for it to melt or heat it up somehow so that you just have water. The next part is a little trickier, because you will use the volume of your water and the known density of water to get the mass of the melted snow. You'll have to measure the volume of the water in milliliters somehow and then convert to cubic meters. Take your measured milliliters and divide by a million (or if you have liters, divide by 100,000 - I honestly have no idea how much water you'll have in a square foot of snow) to get cubic meters. Now! The density of water = 1kg/cubic meter. Since density = mass/volume and your density is 1, your mass is actually the same number as the volume you got, except the units cancel out to kilograms. Multiply that by the number of square feet your deck is and you have your mass in kilograms...simple enough to convert to pounds.
