scale. While not technically the same concept as weight, in the US system of measurement, mass and weight are treated the same if the object is on Earth.
the difference between the two in the metric system is in the acceleration due to gravity. where a scale (using Newtons) can still be used to measure the weight in Newtons and then divided by the 9.8 m/s^2 acceleration due to gravity, thus giving the mass in units of kg

Can mass and volume be measured using the same process and instruments?
No. Mass and volume are two completely different properties.
How can temperature be measured by determining the change in volume?
Temperature can be measured by determining the change in volume using gas thermometers. As a gas is heated, its volume increases due to the expansion of the gas molecules. By measuring this change in volume, the temperature of the gas can be calculated using the ideal gas law.
Can sand be measured in liters?
Sand is typically measured in volume, such as cubic meters or cubic feet, rather than liters. However, you can still calculate the volume of sand in liters by using the appropriate conversion factors.
How a solid be measured?
It can be measured by volume
Is measure milk by volume or weight?
Milk is measured by volume. It is not measured by weight.
