"Pound" is a unit of force. It's not a unit of mass.

The mass of an apple depends on the individual apple. If it weighs, say,

8 ounces on Earth, then its mass is 0.5 poundmass, or 0.015625 slug.

Exactly the same as the mass of a green apple of exactly the same size and density.

Half the mass of a golden apple of exactly twice the size and the same density.

One quarter of the mass of a Northern spy apple of twice the size and double the density.
