What is the difference between the mass of a mole of oxygen and a mole of O2 molecules?

A mole of oxygen atoms has a mass of approximately 16 grams. A mole of O2 has a mass of approximately 32 grams. A mole is 6.02 x 1023 particles and as such a mole of oxygen atoms has only half the mass of a mole of oxygen molecules.

In what way are atoms of oxygen most different from and atoms of nitrogen?

Atoms of oxygen have 8 protons and 8 electrons, while atoms of nitrogen have 7 protons and 7 electrons. This difference in the number of protons leads to variations in their chemical properties and reactivity. Additionally, oxygen atoms are in group 16 (also known as group VI) in the periodic table, while nitrogen atoms are in group 15 (group V).
