A ton is heavier than a kilogram
A kilogram of mercury and a kilogram of water both weigh the same - 1 kilogram. However, mercury is more dense than water, so a kilogram of mercury takes up less space than a kilogram of water. This can give the impression that the kilogram of mercury is heavier, but in reality, they have the same weight.
same weight - 1kg
A pound is heavier than a gram. There are approximately 453.592 grams in a pound.

On Earth, 1 kilogram of mass weighs 2.205 pounds, so the kilogram is 120.5% heavier than 1 pound. On the Moon, the same kilogram of mass weighs 5.838 ounces, so 1 pound is 174% heavier than the kilogram. So you see, it all depends on where you are. I hear you. You want to say that "1 kilogram of mass just weighs a kilogram". Well, maybe you can get away with that on Earth. But if you should ever take it to the moon, then you'll have a kilogram that weighs 0.165 kilogram, and that's guaranteed to confuse a lot of people, and possibly even bring your space flight to disaster. That's why we have to start being more careful about mass and weight, in this modern space age of ours.
