All atoms look like clouds in the microscope. Firstly, because there is no color in the microscopic world of atoms, the atom looks white. Secondly, atoms are consisted of protons and neutrons (in the core) and negatrons or electrons. If your question is "What does the molecular structure of oxygen looks like" then : It looks like that : O=O It has a double joint.

An oxygen atom is composed of a nucleus surrounded by an electron cloud. The nucleus contains protons and neutrons, while the electron cloud contains electrons. Atoms are incredibly small and cannot be seen with the naked eye.

The atom of oxygen has a covalent radius of 66,2 pm. The atomic weight is approx. 16 amu. The atomic nucleus of oxygen has 8 protons and depending on the isotope - 8,9 or 10 neutrons.
The electron configuration is: [Ne]2s2.2p4.

Oxygen has 8 protons and 8 neutrons in the nucleus. Is then has 2 electrons in the 1s orbital, 2 electrons in the 2s orbital, and 6 electrons in the 2p orbitals (2 in 2px, 1 in 2py and 1 in 2pz).

An oxygen atom looks like a ball. There is a nucleus with protons in the center and electrons orbiting the nucleus.
