C26h38o4
No: The molecular formula is never smaller than the empirical formula.
The molecular formula of this compound is N2H2. This is obvious because the empirical formula of a compound is the lowest positive integer ratio of atoms present.
The empirical formula of a compound shows the lowest whole number ratio of the elements in that compound; AKA simplest formula. The molecular formula describes the number of atoms of each element that make up the molecule or formula unit; AKA actual formula
What you have listed is the molecular formula, C6H4Cl2, the molecular formula is a multiple of the empirical formula in this case being C3H2Cl.
CH2O is not only the empirical but also the molecular formula for formaldehye. It is also the empirical but not the molecular formula for hydroxyacetaldehyde, acetic acid, methyl formate, 1,3-dihydroxyacetone, and many other compounds.
No: The molecular formula is never smaller than the empirical formula.
This is the chemical formula (empirical formula) or the formula unit of this compound.
Empirical formula: C3H2
A molecular formula is identical to the empirical formula, and is based on quantity of atoms of each type in the compound.The relationship between empirical and molecular formula is that the empirical formula is the simplest formula, and the molecular can be the same as the empirical, or some multiple of it. An example might be an empirical formula of C3H8. Its molecular formula may be C3H8 , C6H16, C9H24, etc. Looking at it the other way, if the molecular formula is C6H12O6, the empirical formula would be CH2O.

C4H6. C2H3 gives a molecular mass of 27, 54/27 gives 2. Therefore the molecular formula is twice the empirical formula.
