It's mass would be one kilogram on the moon, but It would weight about 1/6 of one kilogram.
Answer:
Mass and weight are not interchangeable - mass is always constant but weight varies as the local gravitational force. As a result on a equal arm balance the "weight"
of a a one kilogram object would be the same as the total weight put on the other arm (which total one kilogram). On a spring balance however, where the spring is compressed or stretched by the action of gravity on the one kilogram mass to indicate "weight", the "weight" on the moon would be about 1/6 of the weight on Earth.
