Anywhere between 0.08 tonnes and 0.125 tonnes.

Depending upon the type of asphalt, and its actual make up, the density of asphalt can vary between 1.6 tonnes/m3 and 2.5 tonnes/m3

1000 mm = 1 m

mass = volume x density

volume = 1 m2 x 50 mm

= 1 m2 x 50 ÷ 1000 m

= 0.05 m3

The mass can vary between:

lightest: mass = 0.05 m3 x 1.6 tonnes/m3

= 0.08 tonnes

heaviest: mass = 0.05 m3 x 2.5 tonnes/m3

= 0.125 tonnes
