Matter is anything that is made up of atom. It is anything that has mass and occupy space.

Mass And Weight Of a Body....
The term mass and weight are often used as though they mean the same thing. But they don't.
Mass is the quantity of matter contained in a body. It is measured in Kilogram(Kg).
Weight is the measure of gravitational force exerted on a body. It is measured in Newton(N).
Weight is also the downward force acting on a body.

The mass of a body remain unchanged throughout the universe unlike weight of a body that varies due to change in places.
