Weight: the amount or quantity of heaviness or mass; amount a thing weighs.
Mass: a body of coherent matter, usually of indefinite shape and often of considerable size:
example: When on the moon for example, your weigh will differ from your weight on earth. Your mass however does not change.

5. How do isotopes differ from one another and from the element atoms on the periodic table?
Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. This results in variations in atomic mass for isotopes. The element atoms on the periodic table represent the average mass of all its naturally occurring isotopes.
Does nitrogen and oxygen weigh the same?
No, one mole of each, having the same VOLUME (about 22.4 L at STP), differ though in their masses: 32 g/mol for O2 and 28 g/mol for N2 So their densities (mass per volume) also differ in the same way: 1.43 g/L and 1.25 g/L respectively, at STP.
A radioactive element has a half-life of 1000 years. If a sample of this element begins with a mass of 20 grams how long would you have to wait for the mass to decrease to 5 grams?
Since the element has a half-life of 1000 years, it will take two half-lives for the mass to decrease to 5 grams from 20 grams. Two half-lives equal 2000 years, so you would have to wait 2000 years for the mass to decrease to 5 grams.
Isotopes of an element differ from each other in the number of?
Isotopes of an element differ from each other in the number of neutrons in the nucleus. They have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons, leading to variations in atomic mass.
In what way do these atoms corresponds and in what way do they differin terms of their mass numbers?
Atoms correspond in that they are all made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons. However, they differ in their mass numbers, which is the sum of protons and neutrons. Atoms of different elements have different mass numbers due to varying numbers of protons and neutrons.
How does mass differ from rate?
How does what differ from mass?
How does Uranus' mass differ from Earth's mass?
The mass of Uranus is about 14.5 times the mass of earth.
Is molar mass differ in isoelectronic compound?
No, the molar mass does not differ in isoelectronic compounds. Isoelectronic compounds have the same number of electrons and therefore the same atomic mass, resulting in the same molar mass.
What is the mass of a Swimmer in kg?
Trick question. The mass of the swimmer will always be the same it is the weight that will differ.
What is a homophone for mass and be ready?
weight and wait
What do atoms subatomic particles differ in?
They differ by mass, electrical charge, dimensions, location in atom, type of qurks contained.
Are you allowed to eat meat after Good Friday Mass?
I suppose the answer is yes. But you have to wait until Mass is over. Since there is no Mass on Good Friday you will have to wait until after the Vigil Mass on Holy Saturday. Otherwise you are free to eat meat after midnight on Friday night.
Why does isotopes have different mass from one another?
because they differ in the number of neutrons
Isotopes of the same element differ in their?
number of neutrons, and therefore their mass numbers.
Elements that differ in mass number are?
Such atoms are isotopes and belong to the same element.
Why does gravity differ from various celestial bodies?
Gravity depends both on mass and on distance.
What can you say about the basis difference in isotopes?
Isotopes of the same element ONLY differ in mass.
