Back to back running the kart at 180 kg and 190 kg round Crail...

10kg is between 0.35 to 0.4 slower

Weight will effect you differently at different circuits.

I've also found that having raced in Holland the weight limit there is 185 kg. When the base weigh limit is higher every extra kg seems to have more compounded effect. If your within a kg or 2 at 180 kgs it won't make a difference.

Maths and Physics won't help you work it out as there are too many figures to attempt compute, as there are positives and negatives to carrying that extra kg or 2...
