Answer:

The element is O, because the periodic table isn't describing molecules, it's describing atoms. The molecule is O2 because it takes 2 O atoms to make a molecule of oxygen. These types of elements are called diatomic elements, because the element exists in its pure form as a molecule composed of 2 atoms of the element.
