Density. (Measures the amount of matter in the object)
Mass, however, describes the weight of that matter. This first answer given above, is totally incorrect. Density is a derived unit expressed as the mass per unit of volume of a substance. Example : Brass has a density of about 8.5 Gram per cubic Centimetre . This means that if the lump of brass occupied 1 cubic Centimetre , then that particular piece would have a mass of exactly 1 gram. Proper Answer:- amount of matter is measured either as it's VOLUME in cubic Centimetre, or it's MASS in gram.( the same amount as it's weight) other units which are commonly used to measure matter are :- pounds, ounces, kilogram, ton etc. OR cubic Inch, cubic foot, cubic metre, etc.

Is mass a force or a measure of the amount of matter in an object?
Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, not a force.
Is weight a measure of the amount of matter in an object?
Weight is actually a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object. It is not directly a measure of the amount of matter in an object. The amount of matter in an object is typically referred to as its mass.
What Amount of matter in a object or a measure of the inertia of an object?
Mass is the amount of matter in an object or a measure of the inertia of an object. It is a fundamental property of an object that determines how much force is needed to accelerate it.
Why is density or volume not the amount of matter in an object?
Density is a measure of mass per unit volume, not the total amount of matter in an object. Volume is the space occupied by an object, not the amount of matter it contains. The amount of matter in an object is represented by its mass, which is a measure of the quantity of material it contains.
The amount of matter in an object is called what?
The amount of matter in an object is the fundamental property of the object. This is matter to weight.
