According to question the equation of oxidation will be :- 

                                                O^{2-}\ \rightarrow \ \frac{1}{2}O_2\ +\ 2e^-

Thus,      for oxidation of   O2- ,  2F charge is required.

                                               = 2\times96500\ C

                                               = 193000\ C
