About
A standard loaf of bread measures about 9.8 inches long and weighs around 1.3 pounds.
Commercial sandwich bread typically ranges in weight from 1 pound (0.45 kg) to 1.5 pounds (0.68 kg), depending on the recipe and pan size. Other styles differ widely in shape, such as long French baguettes that can exceed 25 inches (0.64 m) in length while remaining relatively narrow. A significant portion of any baked loaf's volume consists of trapped gas bubbles formed during fermentation, making bread much lighter than its outer dimensions suggest.
From Wikipedia
