The different forms of an element which have same chemical properties but different physical properties are called as allotropes.
Allotropes of Oxygen are Diatomic Oxygen (O₂) and Ozone (O₃) .
Both of the allotropes of Oxygen exist in the gaseous state.
Therefore, the allotropic forms of oxygen are Diatomic Oxygen (O₂) and Ozone (O₃)
