Explain the difference between mass and weight. Also, what happens to your mass and your weight if you were to travel to the moon? Why?

PLEASE HURRY!!

Weight can be explained as the force with which the gravity pulls an object. Your weight will not be the same in all planets. In moon, you will weigh far lesser than how much you weigh on the earth. However, in earth and in the moon, your mass will remain the same.
