Best Answer

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.

RAM of O = 16

RAM of H = 1

so it is 16 times greater

Oxygen atomic weight: [15,99903;15,99977]

Hydrogen atomic weight: [1,00784;1,00811]

The ratio of the weights is 16.

Data from a "IUPAC Technical Report", 2009.

Does water have more hydrogen or oxygen in it?

By number of atoms it has more hydrogen, by mass it has more oxygen. Each water molecule contains two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. However, a typical oxygen atom has about 16 times the mass of a typical hydrogen 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.
