How to estimate weight of a rock or boulder based on its size cubic inches or feet or whatever?

That would be hard to say considering that different rocks have different density.
As a rough measurement one can assume that the weight of rock is approximately 3 times that of water per cubic meter i.e. 3000kg per cubic meter. Another source assumed that rock is 2.7 times the weight of water. It would seem that this is a good approximation, but in the end density and volume will give you the most accurate answer.

How do you convert a grams to inches?
You cant. Grams is a measurement of weight and inches is a measurement of length. If you measure the mass of whatever your material is then express its weight in grams. The best you could do is calculate the space that it occupies in cubic millimeters or centimeters. Then you could express that in inches in theory.
A geologist estimates that a large boulder weighs 7840 N What should he estimate the mass of this boulder to be?
Weight is the force due to gravitational acceleration that acts on a mass.As such to find the mass you must divide the weight by the gravitational acceleration.In this specific example if we assume that gravatational acceleration is equal to 9.8 m/s/s then the mass equals:7840 / 9.80Mass = 800 kg.
