Answer

Hydrogen: $0.08392\text{ g/mol}$ Oxygen: $1.332\text{ g/mol}$

Work Step by Step

$\frac{1.00794}{12.0107}= \frac{H}{1}$ $\frac{15.9994}{12.0107}= \frac{O}{1}$ Thus, hydrogen and oxygen would have atomic masses approximately $0.084$ and $1.33$, respectively, on this new “carbon-equals-1” scale.
