The masses of hydrogen, oxygen, and all the elements are on the Periodic Table. The mass for hydrogen is 1.01, and that for oxygen, 16.0, so a single oxygen atom weighs as much as 16 hydrogen atoms.

How many times heavier is a copper atom compared to an oxygen atom?

A copper atom is about 63 times heavier than an oxygen atom. This is because copper has an atomic number of 29 and oxygen has an atomic number of 8, meaning that a copper atom has approximately 63 times more protons and neutrons in its nucleus than an oxygen atom.

How many times an atom of calcium is heavier than an atom of oxygen?

Average atomic mass of Ca = 40.1 Average atomic mass of O = 16.0 Mr(Ca)/Mr(O) = 40.1/16.0 = 2.51 Thus the calcium atom is about 2.5 times heavier than the oxygen atom.
