Answer:

Weight is used most often for measuring solid whereas volume is used most often for measuring liquid.

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight is used most often for measuring solid, because solids have definite shape. Weight is usually expressed in Newton (N) because it is a function of mass and gravity. ( weight = mass x gravity).

Whereas volume is used most often for measuring liquid, usually expressed in cubic meter (m³) because liquids have no definite shape, rather they occupy the volume of their container.
