hope you find this helpful if yes mark as brainlist answer.....

Mass....

1 Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in a body. 
2 Mass is denoted using m or M.
3. The mass of an object is the same everywhere.
4 Mass can never be zero.
5. Mass does not change according to location.
6 Mass is a scalar quantity. It has magnitude

7 Mass may be measured using an ordinary balance.

8. Mass usually is measured in grams and kilograms.


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

W = m * g

3. Weight depends on the effect of gravity. Weight varies according to location.
4. Weight can be zero if no gravity acts upon an object, as in space.
5. Weight increases or decreases with higher or lower gravity.
6. Weight is a vector quantity. It has magnitude and is directed toward the center of the Earth or other gravity well.
7. Weight is measured using a spring balance
8. Weight often is measured in newtons, a unit of force.

Hope this will help you
