weight
The measure that describes the amount of gravitational force of an object is its mass. Mass is a fundamental property of matter that determines the amount of gravitational force it exerts on other objects. The greater the mass of an object, the stronger its gravitational force.
On Earth mass measures the gravitational pull an object has. Any place off Earth or with a unequal gravitational pull mass is measured in the amount of atoms an object has.
The mass of an object does not change when the gravitational force changes. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and is independent of the gravitational force acting on it.
Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and is directly related to the gravitational force that object experiences. The greater the mass of an object, the greater the gravitational force it exerts or experiences.
There is no minimum mass at which point an object (celestial or otherwise) begins to have a gravitational force. Any object with mass has an associated gravitational force. The magnitude of that force is proportional to to the mass of the object - lots of mass results in lots of gravitational force; little masses result in only little gravitational force.

Weight is not considered a constant measure of the amount of matter of an object because it can change depending on the gravitational force acting on the object. Weight is a force that depends on gravity, while the amount of matter an object contains, or its mass, remains constant regardless of the gravitational force.
force due to gravity
A different amount of gravitational force will change the weight, but not the mass.
To find the mass of an object, you would need a scale or balance to measure the object's weight. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, so a scale measures the gravitational force acting on the object, which is directly proportional to its mass.
Mass is a scalar quantity that represents the amount of matter in an object. It is not a force itself, but it does affect the gravitational force experienced by an object.
No, mass remains constant regardless of changes in gravitational force. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and is independent of gravitational force, whereas weight, which is the force acting on an object due to gravity, can change with variations in gravitational force.
