It is an empirical formula.
To determine the molecular formula from the empirical formula CH2O and given molecular mass of 60.0 amu, calculate the empirical formula mass: (12.01 g/mol for C) + 2(1.01 g/mol for H) + 16.00 g/mol for O = 30.02 g/mol. Then divide the given molecular mass by the empirical formula mass to find the factor by which the empirical formula must be multiplied to get the molecular formula: 60.0 amu / 30.02 g/mol ≈ 2. Next, multiply the subscripts in the empirical formula by this factor to find the molecular formula: 2(C)2(H)2(O) = C4H4O2, giving the molecular formula as C4H4O2.
The empirical formula C2H3 has a molecular mass of 27 (C: 12, H: 1). To determine the molecular formula with a molecular mass of 54, the molecular formula would simply be double the empirical formula, so the molecular formula would be C4H6.
A formula unit is an empirical formula.
The molecular formula of a compound with an empirical formula of CH is likely to be CH, as there is only one carbon atom and one hydrogen atom in the empirical formula. In this case, the empirical formula is also the molecular formula.
CH2 is the empirical formula for C4H8 because it is an alkene and the empirical fomula for ALL alkenes are C(n)H(2n) n being the number of molecules!!! (^-^)

The empirical formula of a compound that consists of 21.2%N, 6.1%H, 24.2% S and 48.5% O is N2H8SO4.

It is an empirical formula.
The empirical formula of a compound with the molecular formula C12H8 is CH2. This is determined by dividing the subscripts in the molecular formula by the greatest common factor (in this case, 4) to obtain the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in the compound.
The molar mass of the empirical formula is calculated by summing up the molar masses of the elements in the given composition (which gives a molar mass of 281.6 g/mol). To find the empirical formula, divide the molar mass of the compound (245.8 g/mol) by the molar mass of the empirical formula (281.6 g/mol), which gives approximately 0.873. This means the empirical formula is BrC₆H₈O₃.
To determine the molecular formula from the empirical formula CH2O and given molecular mass of 60.0 amu, calculate the empirical formula mass: (12.01 g/mol for C) + 2(1.01 g/mol for H) + 16.00 g/mol for O = 30.02 g/mol. Then divide the given molecular mass by the empirical formula mass to find the factor by which the empirical formula must be multiplied to get the molecular formula: 60.0 amu / 30.02 g/mol ≈ 2. Next, multiply the subscripts in the empirical formula by this factor to find the molecular formula: 2(C)2(H)2(O) = C4H4O2, giving the molecular formula as C4H4O2.
You can only calculate the empirical formula because you do not have a mass of this compound given. To do the empirical formula assume 100 grams and change percent to grams. Get moles. 80 grams Carbon (1 mole C/12.01 grams) = 6.66 moles C 20 grams hydrogen (1 mole H/1.008 grams) = 19.84 moles H the smallest becomes 1 in the empirical formula and the other number is divided by it, Thus; H/C 19.84 moles H/6.66 moles C = 2.9, which we call 3 so, CH3 --------------- is the empirical formula To get the molecular formula tour question needed to read; How to calculate molecular formula from such ans such mass of compound with these percentages of elements, Which, of course, your question did not provide. Then you would have divided that given mass by the mass total of the elements of the empirical formula, got a whole number by which you would have multiplied the numbers of your empirical formula to get molecular formula.
