false I think, but I don't know for sure

Answer:

True

am not sure but my explanation:

An oxygen atom possesses 8 protons, 8 massive, positively charged nuclear particles. There are also 8 massive, neutrally charged nuclear particles, 8 neutrons in the common isotope, 16O. And orbiting the nuclear core, there are 8 electrons, fundamental particles with negligible mass that each possess a formal negative charge.

Any atom with 8 protons is automatically an oxygen atom by defintion. 7 protons specifies a nitrogen atom; 9 protons specifies a fluorine atom. Of course, oxygen generally takes the form of the dioxygen molecule, O2. The number of protons gives Z, the atomic number, which is different for each element.
