No, you are not going to execute the Hex file.
We've already been through that in the original thread.

You need to decode the the Hex file, and load the binary data that it represents into your RAM.
The binary data is what actually gets executed.

how many instructions does each record specify?

The Intel Hex format is entirely oblivious of instructions;
As far as the Intel Hex format it's just bytes of binary data

                  $1.50USD ARM            01/01/70 00:00

         Price issue            01/01/70 00:00      
   Why 3 MCUs?            01/01/70 00:00      
      The Reasons            01/01/70 00:00      
         AVRs won't have this problem            01/01/70 00:00      
            OK            01/01/70 00:00      
               Changing processor            01/01/70 00:00      
                  My two cents            01/01/70 00:00      
                  ARM is the right choice for the project of this Sc            01/01/70 00:00      
            I'd be VERY careful using ATMEL!            01/01/70 00:00      
               prototype testing is necessary            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Yes, you have to test them under extremes            01/01/70 00:00      
               Richards, can you suggest an alternative?            01/01/70 00:00      
                  NXP            01/01/70 00:00      
                  In short ...            01/01/70 00:00      
            Neither would a comparable 8051!            01/01/70 00:00      
               8051 is not french wrench            01/01/70 00:00      
                  AVR can't execute from external RAM            01/01/70 00:00      
                     Russell Bull is right            01/01/70 00:00      
                        just like any other uC            01/01/70 00:00
