The physical property measured with a balance is mass.
A balance is a kind of scale which compares the masses of two objects, usually one with a known mass (the standard) and one with an unknown mass. Since both objects are within the same gravitational field, they will have the same weight when the scale is balanced, where weight is the downward force on the object resulting from gravitational attraction.
Real scales can change the relative lengths of the moment arms in order to weigh a wider variety of objects with a single set of standards.
A good search term for this subject on Wikipedia is "weighing scale". Much more information can be found there.

With a special balance we can measure the density of samples, which is a property.

What is the difference between physical property and physical quantity?
The physical property is measured by physical quantities. Examples: a mass is measured in kg, the thermal conductivity is measured by W/m.K, the density is measured by g/cm3.
What is definition of physical quantities?
a physical quantity is an amout or any property that can be measured.
What is easily observed or measured without changing the object?
physical property. nobody could have answered this its not complicated?
How are the mass and the weight of an object measured?
Mass being matter contained in a body is usually measured by beam balance or physical balance whereas weight is measured by a spring balance for it depends on gravitational pull of a particular place and can be zero.
What is the difference between physical and chemical property?
A physical property is any aspect of an object or substance that can be measured or perceived without changing its identitywhile Chemical property of matter describes its "potential" to undergo some chemical change or reaction by virtue of its composition.
What is the difference between physical property and physical quantity?

What is a feature of matter that can be observed or measured?
Physical Property.
What physical property can be observed but not measured?
Beauty cannot be measured.
Is width a physical property?
Width is indeed a physical property. Volume is a physical property and width is a part of volume. A physical property can be measured without chemically changing the object.
What is the property of a material that can be measured without changing the identity of the material?
what property of matter has a characteristic that can be measured or observed without changing it idenity
What physical property of matter is measured in ml?
Volume
What property of matter can be observed or measured without changing its identity is?
A physical property
What is definition of physical quantities?
a physical quantity is an amout or any property that can be measured.
What is physical propety?
Physical property is a property that a substance has which can be measured. For instance, some properties are melting points or boiling points.
What is easily observed or measured without changing the object?
physical property. nobody could have answered this its not complicated?
Quantity?
Any physical property that can be measured and represented in numbers.
Is melting point a chemical property or a physical?
It is a physical property, so is boiling point.
