Given:

Hydrogen and oxygen combine in the ratio of 1:8 by mass to form water.

Now,

For every 1 g of Hydrogen, 8 g of oxygen is needed for the reaction to take place. 

Therefore, for 3 g of Hydrogen, the mass of oxygen needed = 8 * 3 = 24 g.

Hence, 24 g of Oxygen is needed to complete reaction with 3 g of Hydrogen.
