Mass :-

Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in a body. Mass is denoted using m or M.

Weight :-

Weight is the measure of the amount of force acting on a mass due to the acceleration due to gravity. Weight usually is denoted by W. Weight is mass multiplied by the acceleration of gravity (g).

★ Comparing Mass and Weight :-

For the most part, when comparing mass and weight on Earth—without moving!—the values for mass and weight are the same. If you change your location with respect to gravity, mass will remain unchanged, but weight will not. For example, your body's mass is a set value, but your weight is different on the Moon compared with on Earth.

Answer:

The mass of an object is a measure of the object's inertial property, or the amount of matter it contains. The weight of an object is a measure of the force exerted on the object by gravity, or the force needed to support it.

this is the answer
