one kilogram of anything weighs 9.807 Newtons

on the surface of the Earth.

While 9.807N/kg is the conventional standard value of the gravitational acceleration, it varies between 9.78N/kg and 9.82N/kg on the surface of the Earth.

At different altitudes and on different planets the value varies further.
