Interesting fact: Thick-skinned oranges can feel heavier than expected because the peel and pith add real mass.
The answer: Typically, an orange weighs about 130 to 250 grams (4.5 to 9 ounces). The exact weight depends on size, variety, preparation, brand, and how much edible or non-edible material is included.
Fruit weights change with ripeness, seed size, water content, and variety. Knowing a typical range is useful for recipes, lunch packing, calorie estimates, grocery planning, and understanding why one piece can feel much heavier than another.
