Hello friend,
Here's your answers:

a) Mass of one Oxygen Atom = 2*8 = 16 amu
Because the atomic mass of Oxygen = 16 amu

b) Mass of one Oxygen Molecule = 2*(2*8) = 32
Because the double of the mass of the Oxygen atom. Because 1 molecule contains 2 atoms.

c) Not sure about this. Generally, Oxygen can get O^(-1). So one electron has added.
So Mass of Oxygen ion = 9 (or) 18 amu. (not sure)

Hope my answer helps you.
