There is a basic difference, because mass is the actual amount of material contained in a body and is measured in kg, gm, etc. Whereas weight is the force exerted by the gravity on that object mg. Note that mass is independent of everything but weight is different on the earth, moon, etc.

Answer:
Hey mate ..the fundamental difference between mas and weight are..
The mass, strictly the inertial mass, relates the acceleration of a body to the applied force via Newton's law:
F=ma
Weight is the force with which gravity pulls on a mass.
Maybe the simplest way to explain the difference is that on the Moon or on Mars, your weight is reduced because gravity is weaker there, but your mass is still the same.
hope it help you....
