One book is lighter than multiple books

Q:
What is the difference between x,y,and z and x,y and z ?
A:
In this case there's no difference. Some people use "," before "and" and some don't.
However it can be used to emphasize the last item (z in this case). That's easy in speech. In writing you'd have to make the "and" or the "z" bold or underlined maybe,
For example: "x, y, AND z"
Here you're emphasizing that "z" is also included.
