1 ton of quartz sand weighs 2,000 pounds, and oranges are colored orange.
1 metric ton = 1000 Kg It doesn't matter if it is dry sand, wet sand or anything else. A 'metric ton' is often just called a 'tonne', to distinguish it from the other two types of tons (British ton and US ton).
It depends on the density of the sand, between about 1.4 tons dry, 1.7 tons rammed, dry. Wet sand will be heavier.
1 ton, but I don't know whether that's a short ton or a long ton. A cubic ton is a measurement of volume (i.e. how much space it takes up). A cubic ton of sand is how much space a ton of sand takes up. A cubic ton of timber is how much space a ton of timber takes up, and as timber is lighter than sand, a cubic ton of timber is larger than a cubic ton of sand, even though they both weigh the same. As for the volume of a cubic ton of sand, I have no idea. You could get a rough answer this way: "m" divided by "d" where m =one ton in whatever units you are using (e.g. kg) and d = density of sand (in the same units)

Sand, wet - 1920 kg/m³ Sand, wet, packed - 2080 kg/m³ Sand, dry - 1600 kg/m³ Sand, loose - 1440 kg/m³ Sand, rammed - 1680 kg/m³ Sand, water filled - 1920 kg/m³

That question cannot be answered, because you ask for a length or distance unit in yards and than for weight in metric tonnes. Length and weight does not go together. Sand is so very different as a naturally occurring granular material of finely divided rock and mineral particles. Sand particles range in from 0.0625, or 1⁄16 mm to 2 millimeters in diameter. An individual particle in this range size is termed a sand grain. The next smaller size class is silt, that are particles smaller than 0.0625 mm and down to 0.004 mm in diameter. The specific weight, also known as the unit weight, is the weight per unit volume of a material. The density of the material, mass per unit volume, is measured in kg/m3. You have to know many more parameters. Is the sand wet or dry. What is the weight of the water in it? Even if you meant "cubic" yards, the calculation of a weight cannot work. The question: "How many cubic yards of pure water make a metric tonne?" is easy to answer.
Well a ton is 2,000 lbs. So probably a small car can be a ton. Or you have have 1 ton of rock,soil, sand.
The density of sand varies depending on what minerals the grains of sand are made of, and wet sand is denser than dry sand. As a rough rule of thumb, a litre of dry sand weighs about 1500 grams.

There is no opposite of 1 ton, as you cannot have a negative measurement of weight.
