How do you measure the mass of a grain of sand?
This depends on the composition of the individual grain (which will effect it's density) and also on the size of the grain.Geologists and civil engineers split sand into 3 grades, from course (0.6 - 2 mm diameter), through medium (0.2 - 0.6 mm diameter) to fine (0.06 - 0.2 mm).As such sand is defined based on the size of the grains, not necessarily their composition. Sand grain composition can vary significantly however by far the most common mineral forming sand is quartz. Quartz has a density of 2650 kg / m cubed.As such a quartz sand grain may weigh as little as 0.007 grams and as much as 8 grams.
