CONTENT

 Weight measures how heavy an object is. 

Weight shows the heaviness of an object

A bag of cement is heavier than a bag of cotton wool

A bag of stones is heavier than a bag of paper

The basic unit of measuring weight is Gram.

We also have other unit of measurement like cg or KG

We can buy a kilogram of turkey at the market to spice up our stew for jollof rice.

Things that are very heavy definitely contain more mass or weight.
