To identify which molecule shows two atoms of hydrogen (H), we can analyze each option:

  1. H2SO4 - Contains 2 hydrogen atoms.
  2. HO2 - Contains 2 hydrogen atoms.
  3. 2CH4 - Contains 2 x 4 = 8 hydrogen atoms (since each CH4 has 4 hydrogen atoms).
  4. 2H2O - Contains 2 x 2 = 4 hydrogen atoms (since each H2O has 2 hydrogen atoms).

From this analysis, both H2SO4 and HO2 show two atoms of hydrogen. However, the other options contain either more or no hydrogen at all.

Therefore, the correct response is:

  • H2SO4 or HO2 (any one of these would be correct if only one answer is allowed).
