The average weight is 2.5 tons (5000 pounds), however a single block can weigh 20 tons (40000 pounds) and more...each block in the Great Pyramid weighed 2.5 tons (5000lbs)

in a different pyramid, it could be more or less

Most of the limestone blocks used to build the core of the pyramid weighed about 2.5 tons (5,600lbs or 2,545kg). Some of the granite blocks up to support the roof of the so-called king's chamber weighed anything up up to 70 tons.
