The atomic weight (not mass) of any element is determined taking into account the isotopic composition and the atomic masses of these isotopes.
Oxygen is a non meta element. Atomic mass of it is 16.
The atomic mass unit is 1/12 from the atomic mass of the isotope 12C.
The relative atomic mass of hydrogen is 1 and for oxygen it's 16. This gives water (which has the formula H2O) a molecular mass of 18.
relative atomic mass
All atomic masses are determined by comparing them to the mass of an atom of carbon12. One atomic mass unit equals one twelfth the mass of an atom of carbon12. That's why its called relativeatomic mass.
The relative atomic mass is 83.798. So where did you get that it is not determined.
Oxygen is a non meta element. Atomic mass of it is 16.
The atomic mass unit is 1/12 from the atomic mass of the isotope 12C.
The unit for atomic mass is 1/12 from the mass of the isotope 12C.
The atomic weight (not mass) of oxygen is [15,99903; 15,99977] or in an abridged form 15,999. The term atomic mass is used only for isotopes. The mass number is the sum of neutrons and protons in an atomic nucleus.
The relative atomic mass of hydrogen is 1 and for oxygen it's 16. This gives water (which has the formula H2O) a molecular mass of 18.

relative atomic mass
Add the atomic masses of each element present. It would be atomic mass of Mg + 2x atomic mass of oxygen + 2x atomic mass of hydrogen.
All atomic masses are determined by comparing them to the mass of an atom of carbon12. One atomic mass unit equals one twelfth the mass of an atom of carbon12. That's why its called relativeatomic mass.
the relative atomic mass for the element potassium is 39.0983
Carbon's atomic relative atomic mass is roughly 12 and oxygen's roughly 16. CO2 therefore is 12 + (16 * 2 ) = 44 units. So the relative _molecular_ (it can't be atomic as CO2 isn't an atom) mass of carbon dioxide is 44 units.
