Stars do not have weight they have mass. Our Sun is said to be one solar mass or 1.98892×1030 kg. There are stars smaller than our Sun (read dwarfs) which can be down to 0.075 solar masses and stars much much bigger than the Sun (Hypergiants) which can reach 80-150 solar masses.

A balance between the weight of a layer in a star and the internal energy pressure that supports it is?
hydrostatic equilibrium
What is matter from nebula that has begun to condense under the weight of gravity to begin formation of star?
Protostar
What can a mass of a star be measured by?
It depends on what gasses the star is made up of , Some gasses are heavier and some are heavier by nature and most burn at different temperatures. If you find out what gasses the star is made of size is an approximation compared to earth and the weight of the star is not usully very very close
How wood mass and weight change on the moon?
Gravity. I guess it depends on what you mean by mass and weight. I think you mean like the weight of something on the moon so i will just explain that. The Moon has less weight so that means less gravity pulling down. The less gravity the lighter you are. a 200 pound man would be 33 pounds.*sourceshttp://www.universetoday.com/guide-to-space/the-moon/weight-on-the-moon/http://www.vat19.com/brain-candy/your-weight-on-the-moon.cfm*put your weight in this and it ill tell you your weight on other world not just the moon. If you scroll down, you will notice it even tell you your weight on a neutron star. Ouch....:)http://www.exploratorium.edu/ronh/weight/
How heavy are stars?
This is a fairly challenging question to address, since there are so many different types of stars in this universe, and because weight and mass do not mean the same thing. In our own galaxy, the Milky Way, roughly 80% of the stars are red dwarfs. Since red dwarfs typically have about 1/5 the mass of our sun, and since the sun's mass is roughly 2,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (2 E+30) kilograms, then about 80% of stars (red dwarfs) in our galaxy have roughly 416,000,000,000,000,032,000,000,000,000 (4.16 E+29) kilograms of mass, which works out to about 917,123,010,689,090,745,280,000,000,000 (9.17 E+29) pounds. Again, mass and weight are not really the same thing. Mass is the measure of the amount of matter that makes up an object, and weight is the measure of gravitational acceleration that mass undergoes, in a given inertial frame of reference - for example, close to the earth's surface. This will probably confuse things, but for your question to really make any sense, it needs to be recast as: "What is the weight of a star on the surface of earth?" Meaning, if it were possible to put a typical star on a scale on the surface of the earth, what would that star weigh? Now, among galaxies in the observable universe, our Milky Way is fairly typical (it is a "barred spiral"), so it is probably safe to say that roughly 80% of the stars in most galaxies throughout the universe are red dwarfs. So, to answer your question, in an extremely broad sense, the weight of a star *on earth* would be about 416,000,000,000,000,032,000,000,000,000 kilograms, or about 917,123,010,689,090,745,280,000,000,000 pounds.
What is the weight of the star nosed mole?
The average weight of a star nosed mole is 50 g (1.8 oz)
Who is putting on weight in the alley?
star gran
Does a heavy or light star produce heavier elements?
the weight of the star doesn't matter.
Uses of slotted weight?
the use of the slotted weight is to throw it like a ninja star at your friends!
Is a star a solid unlike the sun?
No. The Sun is a star and like other stars they are gaseous bodies slowly converting Hydrogen (weight 1 ) to Helium (weight 2) via Nuclear Fusion.
Would a star have more mass or weight?
Mass and weight are the same thing. *Mass and weight are not the same thing. Mass is the measurement of matter within the object and weight is the force applied to the object from gravity. So, to answer your question a star would have much more mass than weight because there is very little gravity affecting the Sun.
What is the weight for the star nosed mole?

What is matter from a nebula that has begun to condense under the weight of gravity to begin the formation of a star?
Matter from a nebula that has begun to condense under the weight of gravity to begin the formation of the star is "dust and gas".
