The maximum height it reaches on the Moon is greater than the maximum height reached on the Earth.

Further explanation
Acceleration is rate of change of velocity.
\(\large {\boxed {a = \frac{v - u}{t} } }\)
\(\large {\boxed {d = \frac{v + u}{2}~t } }\)
a = acceleration ( m/s² )
v = final velocity ( m/s )
u = initial velocity ( m/s )
t = time taken ( s )
d = distance ( m )
Let us now tackle the problem!
\(\texttt{ }\)
We will use following formula to solve this problem:
\(v^2 = u^2 - 2gh\)
\(0^2 = u^2 - 2gh\)
\(u^2 = 2gh\)
\(\large {\boxed {h = \frac{u^2}{2g}}}\)
\(\texttt{ }\)
From above formula , we can conclude that the maximum height is inversely proportional to the gravitational acceleration.
Gravitation acceleration on the moon is less that gravitational acceleration on the earth. Therefore , the maximum height it reaches on the Moon is greater than the maximum height reached on the Earth.
