That's an impossible question to answer, as each one of the 1 million grains of sand will all be a different size and density, making each one of them weigh a different amount.
Because of this, no 1 million grains of sand will weigh the same amount.

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
How much does one cc of salt weigh?
2 grams
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.
How much does a grain weigh?
Assuming you mean the obsolete mass unit rather than a grass seed. one grain is 64.799 milligrams.
How much does one cup of uncooked rice weigh?
The weight of rice can depend on the specific type of rice grain. For example, a cup of uncooked long-grain white rice can weigh about 150 grams, and a cup of raw long-grain brown rice can weigh 165 grams.
How much does one pound of salt weigh?
your an dumba** you answered your question in the question
What is a piece of sugar called?
One piece of sugar is a grain, which is also the same for salt. E.g., a grain of sugar or a grain of salt.
How much does a grain of rice weigh in grams?
Since one grain of rice weighs between 20-30 mg, it weighs about .2-.3 grams.
How much does one peck of seed weigh in pounds?
One peck of grain is equivalent to two gallons or 8 quarts so it's hard to say exactly how much one peck weighs in pounds. It depends on the type of grain.
Which unit is a sensible one to measure the mass of a grain of salt?
milligrams
Why buy popcorn salt?
Popcorn salt is usually more refined than table salt. One grain of the popcorn salt is smaller than one grain of table salt. It sticks to the popcorn better. Gold Medal makes Flavacol, which is an excellent butter flavored popcorn salt. Great on baked potatoes also.
What does one cup of salt weigh?
eight ounces.
What is one piece of salt called?
That's called a 'grain'.
