To find the density of sand, measure the mass of a given volume of sand using a balance, then divide the mass by the volume. The density of sand can vary depending on its composition and particle size, but typically falls between 1.5 to 2.7 grams per cubic centimeter.
That depends on the type and grade of the sand
For water (density 1 kg/liter), that would be a volume of one cubic millimeter. That's about the size of a grain of sand.For water (density 1 kg/liter), that would be a volume of one cubic millimeter.

The density of the box of sand is 30 grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm3). This is calculated by dividing the mass (6000 grams) by the volume (200 cm3).
The weight of a jar full of sand will depend on the size of the jar and the density of the sand. On average, sand has a density of about 1.5 grams per cubic centimeter, so you can estimate the weight by calculating the volume of the jar and multiplying it by the density of the sand.
Since about 20 grains of sand lined up is 1cm, then I can use the volume formula (bwh) and subsitute in 20 grains of sand. 20*20*20=8000. There are about 8000 grains of sand in a cubic centimeter.
The volume of sand is about 1,602 grams per cubic centimeter. That is the equivalent of 0.926 ounce per cubic inch.
Using building sand density @ 110 pounds per cubic foot (1.762 tonne per cubic metre) > volume = mass / density volume = 1 / 1.762 = 0.5675 cubic metres > Note: if you have a different value for the sand density, replace 1.762 with your figure ( in tonnes per cubic metre) , and calculate.
"1 cubic meter" is a perfectly good 'quantity'. If the 'quantity' you want is the weight instead, then you need to know a unit weight or density for sand, in order to convert a volume to a weight.
No, sand and water do not weigh the same for the same volume. Water has a density of 1 gram per cubic centimeter, while the density of sand varies but is generally higher, so the weight of the same volume of sand will be greater than that of water.
When you add water to sand, the volume and mass of the mixture will increase. The density of the mixture will depend on the ratio of sand to water added, but generally, the density will be lower than that of pure sand due to the lower density of water compared to sand.
You need to use the density of sand for this equation. the average density of sand is 1580kg/m3 the equation to use is m = pV where: m = mass p = density V = Volume thus m = 1580*1 m = 1580 kg m = 1.58 tonnes
