Water makes up about 70% of the human body weight. Other components of oxygen, rubidium and vanadium make up the rest of the weight.
trace elements.
Oxygen is the element that makes up the greatest percentage of weight in the body, comprising about 65% of the body's mass.
The atomic weight
Water is not an element, it is made of Hydrogen and Oxygen. Oxygen is the most plentiful element in the human body by weight. If you go by number of atoms, then Hydrogen would be the most plentiful.
The brain only represents 2% of our total body weight. Interestingly, it consumes 25% of the body's oxygen.
Sigificance of the Symbol of an Element :- 1. Symbol represents name of the element. 2. Symbol represents one atom of the element. 3. Symbol also represents one mole of atoms of the element. That is, symbol also represents 6.022 x 1023 atoms of the element. 4. Symbol represents a define mass of the element (equal to Atomic Mass expressed in grams).
A chemical symbol represents an element. For example, the chemical symbol H represents the element hydrogen.
The letter (or letters) represents the abbreviation for that element, i.e. it represents the symbol used to represent that element.
By mass, it is oxygen.
Chemical symbol O represents the element Oxygen. Oxygen is the 8th element in the periodic table.
Elements on the periodic table are usually identified by their atomic number, atomic symbol, and atomic weight. The atomic number represents the number of protons in the nucleus, the atomic symbol is a one- or two-letter abbreviation for the element, and the atomic weight represents the average mass of the element's atoms.
