Concrete weighs about 150#'s per cubic foot. Given that your measurements are 2'x2'x4', the block contains about 16 cubic feet. 16 cubic feet of concrete at 150#'s is about 2400#'s per block.

The standard 6 by 8 by 16 cinder block weighs 28 pounds. They have a compression strength of 1900 psi.
8 inch x 16 inch concrete block is actually 2/3 foot x 4/3 foot block Area of one block is 2/3 x 4/3 = 8/9 square feet Number of blocks in 310 square feet = (310)/(8/9) = (310) x (9/8) = 155 x 9/4 which is 1395/4 = 348.75 blocks
There are 128 square inches in 8x16 inches. There are 144 square inches in a square foot. So, the side of an 8 x 16 block is a little smaller than a square foot. There are 0.89 square feet in the side of a 8 x 16 block
18 pounds No one else agrees. 30 to 35 pounds for typical hollow block, and about 70 pounds for solid is the figure cited by most block manufacturers.
Have cement truck come and pour you some

It weighs 59 lbs. There is a difference between a "real" cinder block and a concrete block. A cinder block uses cinders--ash from the burning of coal--as its aggregate. Concrete blocks are made from concrete. Concrete block is far stronger than is cinder block, and some jurisdictions prohibit the use of cinder block. The only justification for cinder block is that it weighs less than concrete block, which is important if the ground you're building on isn't strong enough to support a heavy structure. This justification has gone away, because now you can buy concrete block made from expanded-shale aggregate that's as light as cinder block and as strong as standard-weight concrete masonry.

A standard concrete block in the US is 16 inches long, 8 inches tall, and 4 inches wide.
An M150 concrete block typically weighs around 35-40 pounds (16-18 kg). The weight can vary slightly depending on the specific mix design and dimensions of the block.
I was always tought "One pallet of block equals one yard". There are 90, 8•8•16 block on a pallet.
