To solve the question about the atomicity of the oxygen molecule, we need to understand what "atomicity" means. Atomicity refers to the number of atoms present in a molecule of a substance.

For the oxygen molecule (\( \text{O}_2 \)):

- Each molecule of oxygen consists of two oxygen atoms.
- Thus, the atomicity of the oxygen molecule is 2.

So, the correct answer is **A. 2**.
