"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.
The amount of sand in 1 unit can vary depending on the type and density of sand, but typically 1 unit of sand is equivalent to 1 to 1.5 cubic meters. It's important to confirm the specific volume of sand with the supplier to ensure accurate calculations for your project.
A liter is a unit of volume not weight, therefore to determine how much a liter weighs it depends on what you're measuring. A liter of water has a different weight than a liter of sand and so on.
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
The weight of 1 cubic yard of sand can vary depending on the type and moisture content of the sand. On average, dry sand weighs about 2,700 pounds per cubic yard.
unit wight of 20mm aggregate
2000 pounds.
1 ton of quartz sand weighs 2,000 pounds, and oranges are colored orange.
millimeter is a unit of distance while milligram is a unit of weight
The SI unit of measurement for weight is the newton.
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.
The weight of 1 cubic meter (cum) of dry sand is typically around 1,600 to 1,700 kilograms, depending on the specific density of the sand.
