02 OXYGEN HAS TWO ELECTRONS TO SHARE WITH ONLY ONE OTHER MOLECULE

O2
Oxygen has 6 electrons, so to make each oxygen an octet (having 8 e-), each oxygen has to share 2 e- with each other (for a total of 4 e-), so yea, double bond would form.

Oxygen (O2) has a double bond between the oxygens.....so yeah.
