Well an atom is all one whole unit. Therefore there is 1 atom in hydrogen and 1 in lithium for a total of 2.

If you are doing homework, you might need to reread the question. Since both are elements, it takes one atom to make hydrogen and one atom to make lithium. The two atoms have different structures. Hydogen contains one proton and one electron. Lithum contains 3 electrons and 3 protons. In the natural word, hydrogen clumps together in the form of 2 hydrogen atoms, while lithium is monoatomic.

Well you can have one atom a billion or no atoms. Hydrogen and Lithium are elements, the most simple pure form of matter.

A hydrogen molecule contains 2 atoms, and has the formula H2.
A sample of lithium, though, contains an almost infinite number of Li atoms, but its formula is written simply as Li.
