"Dalton" in this context has the same meaning as "Atomic Mass unit". Each proton and each neutron has one Dalton, while electrons have none. Therefore, the element in question has 16 daltons, and is in fact an atom of the most common isotope of oxygen, oxygen-16.

If the atomic mass of oxygen is 16 and the atomic mass of hydrogen is 1 how do the current atomic masses compare to daltons?

Atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons. The atomic mass listed on the periodic table is an average of all the isotopes of an element, which includes the mass of the protons and neutrons. Therefore, the atomic masses listed for oxygen (16) and hydrogen (1) are in daltons.

How is an element with 56 protons and 82 neutrons related to an element with 56 protons and 78 neutrons?

They are both Isotopes of Barium. The 56 protons tell us that the element is Barium and when you add the neutrons with the protons you get barium138 and barium134. They are both stable isotobes of barium but of all the barium in the world about 72% is barium138 and 2% is barium134.
