Number of protons in oxygen atom: 8

Mass of one proton = 1.67262158 x 10-27 Kg

Mass of protons in one oxygen atom = 1.338097264 x 10-26 Kg

Mass of one neutron: 1.674927293 x 10-27 Kg

Mass of neutrons in one oxygen atom: 1.33994183 x 10-26 (for 8 neutrons)

Mass of one oxygen atom: 2.67803909 x 10-26 (protons + neutrons).

Now double the mass of one oxygen atom to get the mass of one molecule.

Therefore, mass of a single oxygen molecule is 5.35607818 x 10-26 kg.

What is mass of one mole of oxygen molecule?

The molar mass of oxygen is approximately 16 grams per mole. This means that one mole of oxygen molecules (O2) would have a mass of 32 grams, since each molecule of O2 consists of 2 oxygen atoms.


What is the formula of a molecule of oxygen?

The formula of an oxygen molecule is O2 (2 is a subscript but now WA doesn't permit to write a subscript).15.9994 g/mol is the molecular mass of oxygen. Formula mass is a sum of atomic mass of atoms in the molecule. In O2 there are two oxygen so it will be about 32g/mol


What is the mass of 0.05 moles of an oxygen molecule?

What new substance if one molecule of carbon combine with two molecule of oxygen?

It is sort of tricky question. One molecule of carbon can combine with only one molecule of oxygen. It can not combine with two molecules of oxygen. Incidentally one molecule of carbon is composed of one atom of carbon. One molecule of oxygen is composed of two atoms of oxygen.


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 atoms of carbon react with a molecule of oxygen to form a molecule of carbon monoxide?

there is one atom of oxygen in Carbon monoxide (CO) i.e. half molecule of oxygen.


How many molecules of oxygen are needed for the incomplete combustion of one molecule of methane?

For the incomplete combustion of one molecule of methane (CH4) to form carbon monoxide (CO) rather than carbon dioxide (CO2), one molecule of oxygen (O2) is needed. This results in the equation: CH4 + O2 -> CO + H2O.


How many molecules are in one oxygen?

One oxygen molecule is composed of two oxygen atoms bonded together.


What is the mass of one molecule of carbon monoxide?

The mass of one molecule of carbon monoxide, CO, is approximately 28 atomic mass units (amu). This is calculated by adding the atomic masses of one carbon atom (12 amu) and one oxygen atom (16 amu) together.


How many oxygen molecules bind to myoglobin?

1 Each myoglobin molecule has one heme group and can bind one oxygen molecule. Hemoglobin on the other hand can bind up to 4 molecules of oxygen.


How much does one water molecule weight?

The mass of any molecule is equal to the sum of the Atomic Mass Units of all of its constituent atoms. Atomic Mass Unit values may be found on any Periodic Table. In this case, a water molecule consists of two Hydrogen atoms and one Oxygen atom. Hydrogen has a mass of approximately 1 AMU. Oxygen has a mass of approximately 16 AMU. Therefore, the mass of one molecule of water is approximately 18 AMU (or 18.01528 AMU exactly). What does this number mean? If you had exactly 6.022 x 10^23 molecules of water, it would weigh 18 grams.


A molecule of water is composed of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen if the atomic mass number of hydrogen is 1 and the molecular mass of water is 18 the atomic mass of oxygen must be?

The molecular mass of water (H2O) is 18, which means the total mass of one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms is 18. Since the atomic mass number of hydrogen is 1, the atomic mass of oxygen can be calculated as 16 (18 - 2).
