Explanation:
Mass of a substance is the amount of matter contained in a body .
☆ Its S.I. unit is kg .
☆ It remains constant .

Weight is the force with which a body is pulled to the centre of the earth .
☆ Its S.I. is N ( newton ) .
☆ It changes from place to place .

Mass of a body on Mars will numerically be equal to what it was when it was on Earth since the matter contained by that body cannot change .
But weight will vary depending on the gravitational force exerted on the body .
