The Center of Mass of Water Find the center of mass of a water molecule, referring to the figure(Figure 1) for the relevant angles and distances. The mass of a hydrogen atom is 1.0 u, and the mass of an oxygen atom is 16 u, where the atomic mass unit, u, is defined as follows: l u=1.66 × 10 27 kg.). Use the center of the oxygen atom as the origin of your coordinate system.
