A pound of butter (as is sold in the USA) is 454 grams, typically in four sticks. Each stick is thus 113.5 g. A stick of butter is typically marked as 8 tablespoons, so 14.1875 g per tablespoon.
Thus 10 tablespoons should be around 141.875 grams. Some conversion charts round and say a stick of butter is 110 gram. That would make 10 tablespoons about 137.5 grams. I say find a happy medium and call it 140 grams.
Even if you melt it, it should be the same weight (assuming you don't aggressively evaporate the water in the butter).
