Note: Mass and weight are often used, in a general way, as
interchangeable terms, since the weight of a body is
proportional to its mass (under the same or equal
gravitative forces), and the mass is usually
ascertained from the weight. Yet the two ideas, mass
and weight, are quite distinct. Mass is the quantity of
matter in a body; weight is the comparative force with
which it tends towards the center of the earth. A mass
of sugar and a mass of lead are assumed to be equal
when they show an equal weight by balancing each other
in the scales.

Mass
\Mass\ (m[.a]s), n. [OE. masse, messe, AS. m[ae]sse. LL.
missa, from L. mittere, missum, to send, dismiss: cf. F.
messe. In the ancient churches, the public services at which
the catechumens were permitted to be present were called
missa catechumenorum, ending with the reading of the Gospel.
Then they were dismissed with these words :
“Ite, missa
est” [sc. ecclesia], the congregation is dismissed. After
that the sacrifice proper began. At its close the same words
were said to those who remained. So the word gave the name of
Mass to the sacrifice in the Catholic Church. See
Missile,
and cf.
Christmas,
Lammas,
Mess a dish,
Missal.]
