Mass balances for mass, Newton meters for weight (as weight is a force) are for everyday measurements and basic laboratory experiments as they provide sufficient accuracy and are less technical . For smaller masses mass spectroscopy is used to measure microscopic particles (though this is given in mass/charge ratio) as it is difficult to move a single atom. In space, where there is no gravity and in fact most devices only measure weight and convert this into mass by W= mg; mass is calculated using the spring oscillation formula which means time of oscillation squared is directly proportional to mass. Also mass and weight are not the same thing as one is a force and one is a measure of how much acceleration a force produces.
Mass and weight are two different things: you cannot measure the mass of your weight. That is like talking about the temperature of your height - it makes no sense.
Weight is a measure of the gravitational force exerted on an object, while mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. Weight can vary depending on the gravitational pull of a location, whereas mass remains constant regardless of location.
Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass. Mass remains constant regardless of location, while weight can change depending on the strength of gravity.
You would use a weighing scale or a weighbridge to measure the mass of a truck. These tools are specifically designed to handle the heavy weight of vehicles like trucks.
The weight of an object is a measure of the force of gravity acting on it. It is dependent on the mass of the object and the acceleration due to gravity at its location. Weight is different from mass, which is a measure of the amount of matter in an object.
mass is measured with a balance comparing an unknown mass with an object of known mass. weight is not measeured with the same tools as mass.

No. 52.1 kilograms is a measure of mass, not weight. Weight and mass are measures of different characteristics.

No; volume and mass are different characteristics with different units of measure.. Mass = Volume x Density

weight and mass measures the volume
Mg (milligrams) is a measure of weight or mass while ml (milliliters) is a measure of volume.
The weight of an object is a measure of the force of gravity acting on it. It is dependent on the mass of the object and the acceleration due to gravity at its location. Weight is different from mass, which is a measure of the amount of matter in an object.
No, mass is a measure of how much matter there is. Weight is the measure of force of gravity acting on that mass. A rock has the same mass whether it's on Earth or the Moon or Jupiter, or floating out in space. The weight for each of these situations will be quite different.
