water is made of two elements oxygen and hydrogen. H2O..being that there are two parts of hydrogen and one part oxygen. then most of the mass of water would be hydrogen.
Hydrogen and oxygen Water is the most common molecule, between 55 and 65% of our mass. Hydrogen accounts for 63% of our atoms, but oxygen accounts for 65% of our mass. (Both hydrogen and oxygen are part of many other molecules besides water.)

I am not sure about the percentage, but most of the mass is concentrated in the Sun.
Evaporation.

The great majority of the mass of an atom is found in the nucleus, where protons and neutrons are located. The nucleus is incredibly dense and accounts for almost all of the atom's mass, while electrons, which are much smaller and lighter, contribute very little to the overall mass of the atom.
Water accounts for about 1/50 th or 2% of the earths mass.
An air mass that forms over water at high latitude is most likely cold. The air mass over the water would also be quite humid.
Hydrogen is the lightest of all elements, having atoms that are only a fraction of the mass of all other elements. For example, an oxygen atom has about 16 times the mass of a hydrogen atom. So while a water molecule contains 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom (and water makes up most of the human body), the single oxygen atom accounts for most of the mass of the molecule.
Most of the hydrogen in our body floats around in the form of water. The human body is about 60% water and hydrogen only accounts for 11% of that water mass. Thus, roughly 6.6% of a typical human's body mass is hydrogen.
The most common isotope of oxygen has a mass number of 16. This isotope, known as oxygen-16, accounts for over 99% of naturally occurring oxygen atoms.
