Definition :-
1. Mass is the quantity of matter in a body regardless of its volume or of any forces acting on it . whereas Weight is a measurement of the gravitational force acting on an object.
Effect of gravity:-
2.Mass is always constant at any place and any timeThe weight of an object depends on the gravity at that place.
Unit of Measurement:-
3. Mass is expressed in kilogram (kg), grams (g), and milligram (mg).Weight is expressed in Newton (N)
Balance used for Measurement :-
4.Mass is measured using a pan balance, a triple-beam balance, lever balance or electronic balance . Whereas Weight is measured using a spring balance.
Type of quantity:-
