The volume of whatever is displacing the fluid.
The buoyant force depends on the volume of liquid displaced and the density of the liquid.
The density of the object or the shape of the object (like a boat) determines the buoyant force.
Mass
Yes they are different things. Buoyant force is always upward. Weight is always downward. Also ... -- Weight depends on the object's mass. -- Buoyant force depends on its volume, and on what it's floating in.
That depends on the amounts, of course - what exactly you are comparing. The buoyant force depends on the volume. For a certain volume of lead, there will be the same buoyant force as for the same volume of iron. On the other hand, since lead has a greater density, the buoyant force on a certain amount of MASS of lead will be less, compared to iron, since the same mass of lead will use up less volume.

That completely depends on the object's volume (which you have not mentioned). The buoyant force on it is equal to the weight of an equal volume of water.

Density - esp relative to water.
The magnitude of a buoyant force on a balloon depends on the size of the balloon. In other words, the force will be either big or small depending on the correlating size of the balloon in use with the experiment.
The buoyant force doesn't depend on the object's weight. It depends on theobject's volume, which the question doesn't reveal.
buoyant force is always or equal to the force exerted by gravity. that's why an object floats.
