You can't compare WEIGHT with MASS - those two are used to measure quite different things. It doesn't make sense to say that they are the same, or that they are different. You can only compare mass with mass, or weight with weight.
The mass on the moon and the earth is the same but the weight changes.
Because the gravitational force between any two objects depends on the product of both their masses. The object's weight on earth depends on the object's mass and the earth's mass, whereas its weight on the moon depends on the object's mass and the moon's mass. Since the moon's mass is very different from the earth's mass, the object's weight is also different there.
-- Your weight depends on the mass of the other mass to which you are gravitationallyattracted, and also on your distance from its center.-- The mass of the moon is much less than the mass of the Earth.-- The moon's surface is much closer to its center than the Earth's surface is to its center.
An object transported from the Earth to the moon has a different weight and same mass.
The gravity is less on the Moon, because the Moon is smaller than earth; it has less mass, and therefore "sucks" less than the earth. Weight is gravity times mass, you have the same mass on Earth and on the Moon (and in space), but weigh less on the moon.

The difference between weight, OK say that your on the moon your weight is the same that it was on earth but your mass will be totally different then it was on earth.
Yes, but the weight of that mass will be different.

Yeah, but the weight will be different
That is because Earth has more gravity. Weight = mass x gravity.
Mass is an intrinsic property of matter, it does not vary. Weight however is variable, it is a measure of the pull of gravity on a mass. As the Moon's gravity is less than that of the Earth, a mass will weigh less on the Moon than it does on the Earth. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Because the mass of the moon is different from the earth's. Also their radii is different. (Note : weight = gravity x mass and gravity = m1 x m2/(r x r)
