YES!!! Atmospheric oxygen is a molecule of two(2) oxygen atoms , which are doubly bonded. It is structurally represented by (O=O).
Oxygen has an allotrope, named 'Ozone' (O3). This is three oxygen atoms combined in a triangulr manner. Any one oxygen atom will make two single bonds to the other two oxygen atoms. Ozone ii naturally found in the upper atmosphere and is thought to protect Earth from some types of Solar Radiation.

Is this true or false an oxygen molecule usually has 2 oxygen atoms?
True. An oxygen molecule typically consists of two oxygen atoms.
Is it true that in a water molecule the electrons within the molecule are attracted more towards the hydrogen atoms?
Yes, in a water molecule, the electrons are more attracted to the oxygen atom than the hydrogen atoms. This creates a partial negative charge on the oxygen and partial positive charges on the hydrogen atoms, leading to a polar molecule.
What is true of the bonds in a water molecule?
The bonds in a water molecule are covalent bonds, where electrons are shared between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms. These bonds are polar, with the oxygen atom being more electronegative, leading to a slight negative charge on the oxygen and a slight positive charge on the hydrogen atoms.
Is carbon dioxide dioxide a nonpolar molecule.?
True
What are two atoms that are covalently bonded?
Two examples of atoms that form covalent bonds are hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2). In a covalent bond, these atoms share electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
