How much does a science book weigh?

The weight of a science book can vary greatly depending on its size, paper quality, and binding type. A typical hardcover science textbook might weigh around 2-3 pounds (0.9-1.4 kilograms), while a smaller paperback edition could weigh as little as 1 pound (0.45 kilograms). Some specialized science books with high-quality paper and extensive illustrations may weigh even more.
