This must be a joke. o.k. this is what the compound looks like;

2H +2OH YIELDS 2HOH

=2 H2O ( WATER MOLECULES )

IS A COMMA MISSING BETWEEN "... COMPOUND, ELEMENT, HOMOGENEOUS ..." ??

IT IS NOT AN ELEMENT, BUT IT IS A COMPOUND THEREOF.

IT IS NOT A MIXTURE BECAUSE THE WATER MOLECULE IS HELD TOGETHER BY IONIC BONDS, AMONG OTHER FORCES.

A PURE WATER SOLUTION IS ABOUT pH 7 - THE MIDDLE OF THE SCALE.

WATER IS ALSO A SOLUTION IN EQUILIBRIUM THAT IS TEMPERATURE DEPENDENT.

THERE ARE SMALL PERCENTAGES OF H3O ( HYDRONIUM ) WHICH CHANGES WITH TEMPERATURE.

THERE IS ALSO AN EXTREMELY SMALL PERCENTAGE OF DEUTERIUM INCLUDED IN THE SOLUTION. THIS IS THE FORM OF THE EQUILBRIUM THAT IS USED IN NUCLEAR REACTORS TO SLOW DOWN THE FAST NEUTRONS AND CREATE GOBS OF HEAT.

DEUTERIUM IS ALSO REFERRED TO AS HEAVY WATER AND IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO MANUFACTURE.

THE "WASTE" PRODUCTS OF CERTAIN TYPES OF NUCLEAR REACTORS ARE URAINIUM AND PLUTONIUM COMPOUNDS THAT CAN BE USED TO CREATE ATOMIC BOMBS.

THE ATOMIC BOMBS USED TO DISABLE Japan IN WW2 WERE ONE URANIUM BASED NUCLEAR DEVICE AND ONE PLUTONIUM BASED NUCLEAR DEVICE.

DESTROYING THE GERMAN DEUTERIUM PLANTS IN Europe ASSURED THAT THE ALLIES WOULD BE THE ONLY FORCE WITH THE CAPABILITY OF THE LEVEL OF DISTRUCTION WHICH THE ABOVE DEVICES IMPART.

WATER IS ALSO THE ESSENCE OF LIFE ie; NO WATER - NO CARBON BASED LIFE.

THIS A HELL OF A JUXTAPOSITION. WATER IS LIFE AND DEATH SIMULTAINIOUSLY.

ASK A CHEMIST WHAT DIHYDROGEN OXIDE IS.

(TOO MUCH INFORMATION)
