Vitamin K antagonists (VKA) are a group of substances that reduce blood clotting by reducing the action of vitamin K. They are used as anticoagulant medications in the prevention of thrombosis, and in pest control, as rodenticides. 1  1 Mechanism of action.  2 Coumarins (4-hydroxycoumarins)
Calculate the average atomic mass of oxygen. Solution: ((15.994915*99.757) + (16.999132*0.038) + (17.999160*0.205))/100 = 15.999405 . Using our equation for determining average atomic mass, we see that the average atomic mass for oxygen is 15.999405 amu. If we check the periodic table, we will see that our average atomic mass is the same as the atomic mass indicated on the element oxygen. Ã
The two most dominant components in dry air are Oxygen and Nitrogen. Oxygen has an atomic unit mass of 16 and Nitrogen has an atomic units mass of 14. Since both of these elements are diatomic in air - O2 and N2, the molecular mass of Oxygen is 32 and the molecular mass of Nitrogen is 28.
