Explanation:
Mass defines amount of particles or matter present in an object. The mass remains constant at all the places.
Weight defines force of gravity acting on the object. The weight changes from one to another place.
The object's weight is calculated by product of the object's mass and acceleration due to gravity at that place.
The mass's unit is fundamental unit which is kilogram whereas weight is a derived unit which is Newton.
