Two or more atoms of similar or different types combine to form a molecule. So, a combination of two atoms of oxygen is a molecule and not an atom. Oxygen is the name for both an element and a molecule. The molecule contains two atoms with a molecular fromula, O2 and is a gas at room temperature. The element oxygen or O is unstable and highly reactive. It is formed only briefly in some reactions.
