The mass would stay the same, but the weight would be only 16.5%.

Explanation:

Mass is the amount of "matter" in an object, which stays the same everywhere. Weight is the force acting on an object by gravity, which changes depending on nearby bodies. In this case, weight on the moon is 16.5% of that on Earth.
