When heated, potassium permanganate decomposes according to the following equation:
\[\ce{2KMnO4 -> \underset{solid residue}{K2MnO4 + MnO2} + O2}\]
Some potassium permanganate was heated in test tube. After collecting one litre of oxygen at room temperature, it was found that the test tube had undergone a loss in mass of 1.32 g. If one litre of hydrogen under the same conditions of temperature and pressure has a mass of 0.0825 g, calculate the relative molecular mass of oxygen.
