Answer:

7 hydrogen atoms

Step-by-step explanation:

NH4C2H302

In this problem we see the hydrogen atom twice, along with the numbers 4 and 3 next to them. (as shown above in bold & underlined)

So, in order to find how many there are in all you add both hydrogen atoms together-

H4+H3= H7

therefore, there are 7 hydrogen atoms in all
