The mass of an object is unvarying. It's weight varies according to the gravitational force on the object. Weight = mass x gravity For a mass of 100 gms, which is 0.1 kg then its weight at the Earth's surface would be 0.1 x 9.78 Kg = 0.978 Newtons Its weight on the Moon would be a lot less and its weight in outer space would be virtually nil.
