When you mix hydrogen with oxygen what happens i heard that it creates water and it also blows up how is this possible?

Water is H2O which means it is made of 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen atom.
Hydrogen is fairly volatile and flammable and oxygen is a gas that that supports burning (it will relight a glowing splint). If you have H2O2 (equal parts hydrogen and oxygen) it is very easy to catch on fire and explode.

What happens when fire mixes with hydrogen?
If there is enough oxygen, the hydrogen will ignite and burn rapidly, possible leading to an explosion.

Hydrogen sulphide explodes when it is mixed with oxygen.
The pull of one hydrogen atom on the one oxygen atom creates polarity in the water molecule?
2 Hydrogen and 1 oxygen. H20
What happens when shared electrons between hydrogen and oxygen spend more time orbiting the oxygen than the hydrogen and what effect does this have on water molecules?
If you think of it in terms of time, the electrons always spend more on the oxygen. This creates polar bonds, and as the molecule is not symmetrical, it means that the whole molecule is polar.
