"The ball used in Association football (soccer) is called a football or soccer ball. Law 2 of the game specifies the ball to be an air-filled sphere with a circumference of 68–70 cm (or 27–28 inches), a weight of 410–450 g (or 14–16 ounces), inflated to a pressure of 60–110 kPa (or 8.5–15.6 psi), and covered in leather or "other suitable" material. \n\nThe standard ball is a Size 5. Smaller sizes exist; Size 3 is standard for team handball."

I feel I need to clarify a few points.  Snooker balls are 2 1/16" and pool balls are 2 1/4".  Pub tables in the UK are different than in America.  I've heard that the cue ball is smaller than the object balls on pub tables in the UK.  This is almost never the case in America.  The cue ball and object balls on American bar tables are almost always the same size (2 1/4").  The cue ball is usually heavier or has a magnet  or iron plug inside to separate it from the object balls.  Of course, if you're playing on anything other than a coin-op table, the cue ball and object balls will be the same size and weight, whether or not the game is snooker or pool.  Whether you are playing on an American snooker table (5'X10') or a full size English snooker table (6'X12') the balls should be 2 1/16".  M.D.-BCA Instructor/Referee.

Standardised footballs\n\nIn 1863 the first specification for footballs were laid down by The Football Association. In 1872 the specifications were revised, and these rules have been left essentially unchanged as defined by the International Football Association Board (for more information see Football (ball)#Association football (soccer)). Differences in footballs created since this rule came into effect has been to do with the material used in their creation.\n\nThe ball used in football (soccer) is called a football or soccer ball. Law 2 of the game specifies the ball to be an air-filled sphere with a circumference of 68–70 cm (or 27–28 inches), a weight of 410–450 g (or 14–16 ounces), inflated to a pressure of 60–110 kPa (or 8.5–15.6 psi), and covered in leather or "other suitable" material. [1] The weight specified for a ball is the dry weight: older balls often became significantly heavier in the course of a match played in wet weather. The standard ball is a Size 5. Smaller sizes exist; Size 3 is standard for team handball; others are used in underage games or as novelty items.\n\nMost modern balls are stitched from 32 panels of waterproofed leather or plastic: 12 regular pentagons and 20 regular hexagons. The 32-panel configuration is similar to the polyhedron known as the truncated icosahedron, except that it is more spherical, because the faces bulge due to the pressure of the air inside. The first 32-panel ball was marketed by Select in the 1950s in Denmark. This configuration became common throughout Continental Europe in the 1960s, and was publicised worldwide by the Adidas Telstar, the official ball of the 1970 World Cup.\n\nOlder balls were usually stitched from 18 oblong non-waterproof leather panels, similar to the design of modern volleyballs and Gaelic footballs, and laced to allow access to the internal air bladder. This configuration is still common, as are more novel ones, such as the 26-panel Mitre PRO 100T, and the 2006 FIFA World Cup football, the 14-panel Adidas Teamgeist. There are also indoor footballs, which are made of one or two pieces of plastic. Often these have designs printed on them to resemble a stitched leather ball.\n[edit]\n\nPatterns\n\nThe design of black pentagon/white hexagon was intended for maximum visibility on monchrome television sets. It has become the archetype, still used for generic balls and symbolic representations of the game. However, premium branded balls have other more elaborate patterns. The Nike Total 90 Aerow has rings intended to aid goalkeepers to determine the spin on the ball. "Official replicas" of the Teamgeist have its 14-panel pattern superimposed on a cheaper 32-panel ball. Older balls were monochrome: originally brown; and later white, especially for floodlit matches. Brightly-coloured balls are used on snow-covered pitches.

Caractéristiques du ballon : il est sphérique, en cuir ou dans une autre matière adéquate, a une circonférence de 70 cm au plus et de 68 cm au moins, a un poids de 450 g au plus et de 410 g au moins au début du match et a une pression se situant entre 0,6 et 1,1 atmosphère (600 - 1100 g/cm²).

Normally 336, but anywhere between 300 and 500 is acceptable. Different balls have different numbers of dimples.

to be exact the answer is 9,256 that is standard for an official nba sized ball

probably 2-5 grams.  it depends on the dimensions of the ballon.  you might as well ask a question like "how long is a piece of string?"

In soccer, the ball is the tool. Master its control.

there are no spots on any soccer ball, they are pentagons and hexagons.  Spots are round.

The best soccer balls have between 1400 and 2000 stitches hand made and need 4 hours of work.\nSource-Sam
