10

The given compound is hexyne which belongs to the alkyne group. The alkyne group of carbon compounds has the general formula which is $C_{n} H_{2 n - 2}$ . The word root hex means that the number of carbon atoms in this compound is 6. Substituting the value of 6 with n in the general formula we can find the number of hydrogen atoms.

So if $n$ =6. The formula for hexyne is $C_{6} H_{10}$ .

Therefore, the number of hydrogen atoms is 10 in hexyne.
