The increased weight of 0.606 - 0.424 = 0.182 (g) must be due to oxygen. Since Fe has atomic weight of 55.845, and Oxygen 16.00. Hence in 0.606g reddish brown oxide, 0.424g iron is 0.424/55.845 Mol = 0.00759 Mol, and 0.182g oxygen is 0.182/16.00 Mol = 0.01138 Mol. Since 0.01138/0.00759 = 1.4982 ≈ 1.5, the emperical must be Fe2O3.
The empirical formula of C3H6O3 is CH2O. This is obtained by dividing the subscripts in the molecular formula by the greatest common factor.
C3H6 is an empirical formula for propene.
To determine the empirical formula, first calculate the moles of each element present by dividing the given masses by their respective molar masses. Then, divide each mole value by the smallest mole value obtained. Finally, round the resulting ratio to the nearest whole number to determine the subscripts required for the empirical formula. In this case, the empirical formula would be K2O2Sn.
The density or some other information must be given that allow you to find the molar mass. Calculate the empirical formula mass. Divide molar mass by empirical formula mass. This answer is multiplied by all subscripts of the empirical formula to get the molecular formula.

the empirical formula and the molar mass
The empirical formula is the formula in its most simplified terms. The molecular formula is how many moles there actually are (the empirical formulat multiplied by a factor).
In order to find molecular formula from empirical formula, one needs to know the molar mass of the molecular formula. Then you simply divide the molar mass of the molecular formula by the molar mass of the empirical formula to find out how many empirical formulae are in the molecular formula. Then you multiply the subscripts in the empirical formula by that number.
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
To determine the empirical formula of a compound, you need the molar masses of its elements and their ratio in the compound. Calculate the ratio of the elements in terms of whole numbers, which will give you the empirical formula.
The actual mass must be divided by the empirical mass. This was derived from the following equation: (subscript)(empirical formula) = (molecular formula) subscript = (molecular formula)/(empirical formula)
