The volume of a single grain of salt is roughly .000004 cubic inches, or .00006 cubic centimeters. Please note that these are fairly rough numbers, both because the size of salt grains varies considerably, and because I calculated it by lining up four grains, measuring their length with a common house-hold ruler, divided the length by four, then cubed it. I also truncated the final answers because there is absolutely no way that my measurements had more than one significant digit. Still, the estimates are roughly accurate.
What else can I help you with?
Grains to milliliter conversion?
a GRAIN is a unit of measure for mass or weight. 1 GRAIN = 1/7000 lb (or 64.78 grams). A ml (milliliter) is a unit of measure for volume. 1 ml = 61/1000 cubic inches (or 1 cubic centimeter)
A wagon 2ft deep 10 feet long 3feet wide how many bushels will it hold?
The simple answer is 48.212 bu. This is found by finding the volume in cubic feet. 2 x 10 x 3 = 60 cu. ft. Divide this by the amount of cu. ft. per bushel (1.2445 cu ft/bu) = 60 / 1.2445 = 48.212 bu. Now this may be true for water, it would probably not be true for grain. Grain will not flow evenly into all the space of the wagon and will be able to peak above the top of the wagon. The volume of the peak in bu will be dependent on the moisture of the grain, the grain type and other factors. Clear as mud right?
One eighth grain is how many milligrams?
(1/8) grain = 8.09986375 milligrams FYI: Google "convert 1/8 grain to milligrams"
How many sand grains is in a cubic ft?
It depends on grain size, which can be as small as 0.004 inch or as big as 0.1 inch. If we take an average grain size of 0.02 inch diameter that is 0.00000043 cubic inch volume and a cubic foot is 1728 cubic inches then (not considering packing voids) that is 1728/.000000 = 4 billion grains!
How much is a 1000 grain silver bar worth?
well 1000 grain is 2.8 rough estimate of 1000 grain so around 70 dollars to sell making a 5 through 7 dollar profit

Is a grain a tiny piece of rock?
A grain can be a tiny piece of rock, yes. A grain can also be a grain of salt, meaning one 'pellet' of salt.
Does the size of a grain of salt affect how fast it melts?
Yes, the size of a grain of salt can affect how fast it melts. Smaller grains of salt will generally melt faster than larger grains because they have a higher surface area-to-volume ratio, allowing them to dissolve more quickly when exposed to moisture.
Took it with a grain of salt?
The expression "I took it with a grain of salt" meant "I didn't believe it".

If a typical grain of salt has a mass of 0.3 mg how many unit cells does it contain?
the weight of a grain of salt is about 5.85x10-5 gramsApproximately how many atoms are in a grain of salt?Asked by: Roger Bevels (teacher)AnswerThis is mainly an estimation problem -- there is no exact measure of how big a 'grain of salt' is. So, the answer will be only correct within an order of magnitude (a factor of 10).The first step is to estimate how large a grain of salt is. I spilt some salt onto the table, and visually estimated that about three grains of salt placed end-to-end are about a millimeter long. (Your mileage may vary.) So, as a simple estimate, I'll assume that salt grains are 0.3 millimeters long.The next assumption is that salt crystals are cubes, with 0.3 millimeter sides. In fact they tend to be, since the crystal structure of NaCl is cubic. However, most have broken corners, but we will ignore that.The density of NaCl is about 2.165 gr/cm3. With the cube assumption, we find that a grain of salt is about 5.85x10^-5 grams. (We could have arrived at this result by weighing an individual grain, or by weighing a gram and then counting the number of grains in it, but this is left as an exercise for the PhysLink reader.)The next thing we need is the weight of a 'salt atom'. There is no such thing as a salt atom, it consists of Na (sodium) and Cl (chlorine) atoms. So, we need to use an average value. The atomic mass of Na is 23 gr per mole, and the atomic mass of Cl is 35.5 gr per mole. So, the average 'atomic weight of salt' is 29.25 grams per mole.Now it is a simple matter to find how many atoms there are in a grain of salt. (Note that one mole contains Avogadro's number of atoms, which is 6.02x1023.)So a grain of salt contains about:5.85x10-5 gr/ (29.25 gr / 6.02x1023) = 1.2x1018 atoms, half of which are sodium atoms. (The other half is chlorine atoms, of course.)Answered by: Yasar Safkan, Ph.D. M.I.T., Software Engineer, Istanbul, Turkey
