Answer:
The mass of an object is a measure of the object's inertial property, or the amount of matter it contains. The weight of an object is a measure of the force exerted on the object by gravity, or the force needed to support it. The pull of gravity on the earth gives an object a downward acceleration of about 9.8 m/s2.

[tex]\longrightarrow[/tex]Mass is the measure of the amount of matter present a body where as weight is the measure of the amount of force that acts on mass because of the pull of gravity.
[tex]\longrightarrow[/tex]Mass is the measure of inertia where as Weight is the measure of force.
[tex]\longrightarrow[/tex]SI unit of mass is KG where as SI unit of weight is Newton.
