If you really meant to ask "What is the mass defect of oxygen-16," this is how you do it.
mass defect = # of protons x mass of one proton + # of neutrons x mass of one neutron - mass of the nucleus
The atomic number of oxygen-16 is 8, so there are 8 protons. The mass of one proton is approximately 1.0073 amu. The Atomic Mass of oxygen-16 is 16, so there are 8 neutrons in oxygen-16. (Atomic mass of 16 minus atomic number of 8 = # of neutrons in oxygen-16.) The mass of one neutron is approximately 1.0087 amu. The mass of the nucleus of oxygen is 16.
Now substitute the values into the "mass defect" equation:
mass defect = 8x1.0073+8x1.0087-16=approximately 0.128 amu.
Atomic mass and atomic weight are different. Atomic mass refers to the mass of an individual atom of a particular isotope. The atomic mass is, therefore, the total mass of nutons, protons and also electrons(though negligible) of one single isoptope of the element.Whereas, the atomic weight is a weighted mean of ratio atomic masses of the isotopes of an element to the 1/12 of atomic mass of carbon-12, the weights being their natural abundance of the isopes in a planet or a given situation. The natural abundance may vary from planet to planet.But at a particular time in a planet the atomic weight remains constant and may vary slightly over time.
Oxygen has several isotopes. But the most stanble isotopes and their atomic masses are as below:
Isotopes Protons Nutrons Atomic mass Aundance fraction
16O 8 8 16 0.99757
17O 8 9 17 0.00038
18O 8 10 18 0.00205
Therefore, The atomic weight of oxygen is
(16*(0.99757)+17*(0.00038)+18*(0.00205)/(1/12 of atomic mass of carbon12) = 16.00448 .
Again, the atomic mass of an isotope is a whole number as there is no fractional protons or nutrons are there.
Not all, but most. Oxygen can exist as O-16, O-17, or O-18. All three isotopes are stable, although most oxygen atoms have an atomic mass of 16.
Mass of an atom = Mass of proton + Mass of neutron
mass by difference is an indirect way to find the mass of an object. For example, if you know the mass of a 'beaker and the substance in it' and the 'mass of the beaker', you can determine the mass of the substance by subtracting (mass of beaker + substance) - (mass of beaker)
mass % of element X = mass of element X ____________________ X 100 total mass of compound or mass of solute _____________________________ X 100 mass of solute + mass of solvent
Percentage composition= (mass of the element/mass of the molecule)*100 The fraction of the molecule's mass that comes from the element's mass
Molar mass is the mass of particles in one mole of a substance. Molar mass is equal to atomic/ molecular/ formula mass in amu. Formula mass is in atomic mass unit while molar mass is in grams .
For the standard isotope Oxygen16 O = 16 but atomic number 8 therefore 16-8 = 8 - so 8 neutrons
Its mass.
Mass and mass are the same thing.
Mass of the contained material = Total mass (mass of the container + mass of the material) - Mass of container
Yes, mass has mass. It is, therefore, matter. If mass did not have mass, then it is "something" with no mass. That would make it "non-matter" and perhaps it might be energy.

Air has mass. Mass is a property and does not have mass
You can't. You can narrow it down a bit---most stable elements have a neutron-to-proton ratio of between 1.5:1 and 1:1 (depending on size). So if you know how many neutrons an element has you can make an educated guess as to approximately how many protons it will have. However, it is impossible to know exactly how many protons an element has based on its number of neutrons, and since the number of protons determines the element's identity, you cannot learn an element's identity from its number of neutrons. For example---all of the following isotopes can be formed with 7 neutrons, with stable ones bolded and underlined: He-9, Li-10, Be-11, B-12, C-13, N-14, O-15, F-16, Ne-17, Na-18, and Mg-19.
Mass of an atom = Mass of proton + Mass of neutron
the mass of protons + the mass of neutrons = mass of the element
