O is the symbol of oxygen which has a valency of -2.

 

Each oxygen combines with the other to complete its octet.

 

Now, if one atom of O conbines with the other.they both need 2 electrons each to be stable.

Thus  covalent bond are formed between the two atoms,and a diatomic molecule is formed.

This molecule  is reffered to as di - oxygen.
