When a dry sponge absorbs water which changes most its mass or its volume?

Weight. (Since fluid is squeezed out, the compressed sponge weighs less).
However, if the question refers to compressing a dry sponge, then the only quantity that would change would be volume.

Mass inertia and weight are based on how much matter the sponge is made of. That cannot be changed just by compressing the sponge. It will still have the same amount of matter.
