Answer

hydrogen sulfide will have the largest number of moles of atoms per $100$ grams compared to the other compounds.

Work Step by Step

The number of moles can be calculated using the molecular formula: $Number of moles=\frac{mass}{molar mass}$ As the molar mass decrease, the number of moles will increase at a constant mass Since hydrogen sulfide has the lowest molecular mass the compound will have the largest number of moles of atoms per $100$ grams compared to the other compounds.
