Weight is dependant upon gravity and the relationship to large bodies of mass such as planets. However, if you were to be put into a vacuum on the surface of the Earth, you would way less. There is air pressure pushing down on you and that would add some weight. It also pushes up on parts of you. The difference is not likely to be very significant, but it should be measurable. However, I don't volunteer to be the person in the vacuum chamber! I am not a scientist, but I believe that you would weigh very slightly more in a vacuum. Think of our atmosphere as being a liquid of very low density compared with water. An object that floats in water displaces water in the amount of the object's weight; if you put a scale under a floating object, the scale registers the object's weight as zero. A perfectly bouyant object has the same density (specific gravity) as water, and as such will have a substantial weight if measured on land. But it will have no weight if weighed in water. An object that sinks in water will have weight, but it will weigh its land weight minus the weight of water displaced by its volume. This should be the same for a person (in a pressure suit, of course). The person will not be bouyed up at all by the atmosphere.
An object will weigh more in vacuum than in air because of the upthrust. There is no upthrust in vacuum whereas in air the pressure pushes an object or person from all sides. The air is dense and it is similar like water where the weight of an object is equal to the weight of the water displaced by it.
There is a buoyant force in water that largely counteracts gravity. Since the human body is about the same density as water, buoyancy just about completely cancels out the force you feel from gravity, effectively rendering you almost weightless. Since air is so much less dense than water the buoyant force you experience is negligible.
This is because there is no upthrust in vacuum so the gravitational force is the weight. In water, there is an upthrust which gets subtracted from the gravitational force. Therefore a body always weighs more in vacuum than in air.
Air helium however is an ellement and a part of air.
objects weigh more in vacuum than in air due to buoyancy of air.
objects displace air equal to their volume and this reduces their weight.
in vacuum, there is no displacement.
In space.
Not in a vacuum. All objects, regardless or mass, density, or whatever, fall with the same speed in a vacuum. Some objects may appear to fall more slowly than others (example, a flat piece of paper or a feather vs. a rock), but this is usually due to air resistance. All objects, when falling on earth, accelerate towards the ground at a rate of 9.8 meters/seconds squared.
Positively charged objects have more protons than electrons. Negatively charged objects have more electrons than protons.
Nearsighted people can see objects that are close more clearly than objects that are far away.
True. An object in motion tends to stay in motion, and an object at rest tends to stay at rest.
There are a plethora of two objects when combined which equal more than 1000 kilograms. These include two 2014 Honda Accords, or two Boeing 777-200 aircraft, for example.

One million is a number, and as such, it is a concept rather than a physical object, and has no weight. You could weigh a million objects but you would have to say which objects they are; a million elephants weigh more than a million apples.
Seeing as a bouncy beach ball is larger than many small things that weigh more, such as a stool, and plenty of other objects are larger and weigh less, no.
The body would wiegh more in air than in vaccum because as we know that there many particles in the air and so their weight whether less or more will be considered with it but in vaccum it's opposite.

Yes, objects on the moon would weigh six times less, but keep in mind that the objects mass stays the same.
It weighs more on the earth. The moon is much less massive than earth, so it attracts objects with a smaller force.

If the Earth became bigger but its mass remained the same, then objects on its surfacewould weigh less than they do now.If the Earth became bigger and its mass also increased, (with average density remainingconstant), then objects on its surface would weigh more than they do now.
9.7% less than you weigh on Earth, 138% more than you weigh on Mars.
