For the same reason a pen is not a pencil. Mass = weight Volume = how much space it takes up. Ask yourself this question. What weighs more, a pound of lead, or a pound of feathers? Imagine it in your head, what each would look like and that gives you the answer.
1 pound = 1 pound
The feathers "take up more room" than the lead. It would be hard to compress the feathers to make them as dense as lead. The feathers have more volume.
A pound of feathers has more mass. The are lighter so they would take up more space to make a pound.
Both a pound of lead and a pound of feathers will fall at the same rate in a vacuum due to gravity. However, in a real-world scenario, air resistance will affect the feathers more than the lead, making the feathers fall slower.
1 pound = 1 pound

One, the correct term is "Which weighs more: a pound of lead or a pound of feathers?" Two, the answer is that they weigh exactly the same, because they both weigh a pound.
Since each substance weighs a pound, they weigh the same amount.

A pound is a measure of weight. A cup is a measure of volume (8 ounces). So it depends on what substance one is talking about. It takes more cups of feathers to weigh a pound than a cup of lead.
