That is a molecular formula.

I can't off the top of my head think of any compound with that molecular formula, though. It's not methoxyethane or a propanol, because it's got one too few hydrogen atoms. It's not propanone or cyclopropanol or oxetane or a propenol, because it's got one too many hydrogen atoms.

How does one determine a molecular formula from the empirical form?

molar mass of unknown/molar mass of empirial = # of empirical units in the molecular formula. Example: empirical formula is CH2O with a molar mass of 30. If the molar mass of the unknown is 180, then 180/30 = 6 and molecular formula will be C6H12O6
