The formula of aspartame is <span>C14H18N2O5.
From the periodic table:
molecular mass of hydrogen = 1 grams
molecular mass of carbon = 12 grams
molecular mass of nitrogen = 14 grams
molecular mass of oxygen = 16 grams
This means that:
molar mass of aspartame = 14(12)+18(1)+2(14)+5(16) = 294 grams
Therefore, each 294 grams of aspartame contains 5(16) = 80 grams of oxygen. To know number of grams of oxygen in 23.6 grams of aspartame, simply use cross multiplication as follows:
mass of oxygen = (23.6x80) / 294 = 6.42 grams</span>

Explanation:
Molar mass
The mass present in one mole of a specific species .
The molar mass of a compound , can easily be calculated as the sum of the all the individual atom multiplied by the number of total atoms .
(a) P₄
Molar mass of of the atoms are -
Phosphorous , P = 31 g/mol
Molecular mass of P₄ = ( 4 * 31 ) = 124 g/mol .
(b) H₂O
Molar mass of of the atoms are -
Hydrogen , H = 1 g/mol
oxygen , O = 16 g/mol.
Molecular mass of H₂O = ( 2 * 1 ) + ( 1 * 16 ) = 18 g/mol
(c) Ca(NO₃)₂
Molar mass of of the atoms are -
calcium , Ca = 40 g/mol
nitrogen, N = 14 g/mol
oxygen , O = 16 g/mol.
Molecular mass of Ca(NO₃)₂ = ( 1 * 40 ) + ( 2 * 14 ) + ( 6 * 16 ) = 164 g/mol.
(d)CH₃CO₂H (acetic acid)
Molar mass of of the atoms are -
Carbon , C = 12 g/mol.
oxygen , O = 16 g/mol.
Hydrogen , H = 1 g/mol
Molecular mass of CH₃CO₂H =( 2 * 12 ) + (2 * 16 ) + (4 * 1 ) = 60 g/mol.
(e) C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ (sucrose, cane sugar).
Molar mass of of the atoms are -
Carbon , C = 12 g/mol.
oxygen , O = 16 g/mol.
Hydrogen , H = 1 g/mol
Molecular mass of C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ = (12 * 12 ) + ( 22 * 1 ) + ( 11 * 16 ) = 342 g/mol.
