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.

HEY THERE!
Mass and Weight are two different words with similar meaning, but still they mean different.
⊕ MASS:
Mass of a substance is the amount of matter present in it while weight is the force exerted by gravity on an object.
⊕ WEIGHT:
The mass of a substance is constant whereas its weight may vary from one place to another due to change in gravity (ANOTHER PLANET).
You should be careful in using these Terms
