a
d

b

Explanation:

A compound is a substance formed when two or more different elements chemically bond together. In the given images:

• Image A shows only one type of atom (all green circles), so it is an element (not a compound).
• Image B shows di - atomic molecules of the same element (all brown circles), so it is also an element (not a compound).
• Image C shows molecules made up of two different types of atoms (red and green circles bonded together), which fits the definition of a compound.
• Image D shows a mixture of different atoms and molecules (not all are chemically bonded in a fixed ratio as in a compound).

Answer:

C.
