My math professor said it but I can't remeber it.

It depends on the type of dust you're talking about. There is very fine dust (like soot, or that produced in the smoke of cigarettes) and more coarse dust, like little pieces of skin or cloth. The weight will vary *a lot*.

Here's a reference (from the Physics Fact Book) for the mass of a grain of sand, which of course is more massive than a dust particle, but it at least gives you an idea.

Don't know what the mass of a dust particle is..you'd need a dust mass spectrometer...dust buster? hehehe
perhaps space dust and earth dust have different mass...

after big-bang all the universe exploded and the science has calculate all the materials of universe together but it only gathered 10 % of primary materials of big-bang , after that they realize that the remaining part change to a very Small particle of dust that they are moving to all universe .
maybe that's it
