A mixture of hydrogen and oxygen would not need to have a certain ratio of hydrogen atoms to oxygen atoms to differ from the compound known as water.
<h3>Why is water a compound not a mixture?</h3>
A water molecule has 2 hydrogen atoms bonded chemically to oxygen atoms and has the formula H₂O.
In a chemical reaction, two atoms react together chemically to form a new product which means the reactants lose their individual properties and obtain new properties of the product formed.
Hence, water is a compound as hydrogen and oxygen atoms are bonded chemically to each other.
On the other hand, if oxygen and hydrogen form a mixture which is a physical change then they retain their individual properties in the mixture. They do not need to be in a specific ratio and there are no chemical changes taking place.
Chemical change determines if a substance is a mixture or a compound.
Thus, a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen is different from water if it doesn't have a certain ratio of hydrogen atoms to oxygen atoms.

Answer:
D
Explanation:
The correct answer that gives a good example of how the same chemical used to help people can harm the environment would be when <u>excess fertilizers run off into rivers and create a dead zone.</u>
<em>Fertilizers are usually applied to crops as an agricultural practice by farmers to enhance the yield of the crops and boost food or raw materials production. However, excess fertilizer gets washed into nearby water bodies and ends up creating a low-oxygen zone that is incapable of supporting lives within the water body - also known as </em><em>dead zones.</em>
The correct option is, therefore, D.
CO2 is not polar as in this case the same types of molecules
are pulling in the same as well as opposite direction. CH4 is also not polar as
there is no imbalance in the charge of the molecules. CBr4 is also not polar
because in this case also no imbalance in the molecular charges can be seen.
CHBr3 is a bit polar in nature because it has different kind of charges at its
opposite ends. S among the all 4 options CHBr3 is polar.
