The standard unit of mass in SI units is kilogram
It is a constant. As such for an object it remains same whether you place it on earth or take it to the moon.
If you had weight in mind, yes there is relation between the two.
As weight is Force of attraction due to gravity and has the following relation
Force of gravity of moon is about six times less than that of earth. Consequently weight of the object on the surface of moon will be about 1/sixth of its weight measured on the surface of earth.
