This is a tricky question. Weight is the affect that gravity has on a mass, but gravity is relative to where the object is. This can be observed on Earth by traveling to different elevations and weighing yourself. At the same elevation on any body with a gravitational force, an object with more mass will weigh more. Mass causes weight, weight does not cause, nor always predict mass.

Relationship between mass weight and gravity?
Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, weight is the force of gravity on an object. Weight is directly proportional to mass and gravity: (Weight = mass \times gravity). On Earth, gravity is relatively constant, so an object's weight is a good indicator of its mass.
How is the mass different from weight?
Mass is the amount of matter that something is made of. Weight is a measure of the gravitational force exerted on an object usually by the earth. Weight can change but Mass cannot. Mass always stays the same
Is weight the amount of substance in something?
No. "Amount of substance" sounds more like a description of MASS, which is not the same as WEIGHT. The relationship is:weight = mass x gravity ("Amount of substance" may also refer to the amount of moles.)
How does density effect the weight of something?
Density affects the weight of an object by determining how much mass is concentrated in a given volume. Objects with higher density have more mass packed into a smaller space, resulting in greater weight. Conversely, objects with lower density have less mass confined in a larger volume, leading to reduced weight.
How heavy something?
The weight of something depends on its mass and the gravitational force acting upon it. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity. So the weight of something can vary depending on where it is located in the universe.
What is the scientific term of mass and weight?
Mass and weight are perfectly scientific terms. It is not necessary to translate them into something more scientific.
Relationship between mass weight and gravity?
Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, weight is the force of gravity on an object. Weight is directly proportional to mass and gravity: (Weight = mass \times gravity). On Earth, gravity is relatively constant, so an object's weight is a good indicator of its mass.
Why is weight different from mass?
Well mass is different from weight in one major way. Mass is how easily something can lift more than weight being how heavy an object is. For example a balloon has mass, but a person carries weight.
What does the weight of something depend on?
Weight of something depends on mass
How is the mass different from weight?
Mass is the amount of matter that something is made of. Weight is a measure of the gravitational force exerted on an object usually by the earth. Weight can change but Mass cannot. Mass always stays the same
Is molecular weight the same as mass?
Technically... not really. It would perhaps be more accurate to use the terms formula mass and molecular mass rather than formula weight and molecular weight. This because in physical terms, weight is a force while mass is a measure of the amount of substance in something.
Is weight n mass The same?
Weight and mass is not the same.Mass is the amount of matter something has while weight is the amount of gravity exerted on something. The mass of an object never changes no matter where you go, but weight does. For example, if an object weighs 10 kg on Earth, it would weight a lot more on the Jupiter because of the Jupiter's greater gravity. However, the mass would stay the same. Weight is related to mass.Weight = mass x amount of gravity.
How is mass used in soccer?
the weight of something
How do weight and mass relate to each other?
Mass directly affects weight. If an object has more mass, it will weigh more.
Why is mass more useful than weight for measuring?
Because is mass is more accurate than weight.
What is it's mass?
mass is just the amount of weight or pressure add on to something
Will the mass or weight increase when you eat something?
When you eat something, the mass of your body temporarily increases due to the addition of the food. This increase in mass will also correspond to an increase in weight, as weight is the force exerted by gravity on that mass. However, once the food is digested and metabolized, the mass and weight will decrease as your body processes and eliminates waste.
