The empirical formula gives the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in the compound. Molecular formula gives the actual composition of elements in the compound.
empirical formula - CH₂O
Mass of one empirical unit = 12 + (1x2) + 16 = 30 a.m.u
We have to next calculate how many empirical units make up the molecular formula. For that we have to divide molecular mass by mass of one empirical unit.
Number of empirical units = 180 a.m.u / 30 = 6
There are 6 empirical units 
Therefore molecular formula = 6 x(CH₂O) = C₆H₁₂O₆
Molecular formula = C₆H₁₂O₆

N2O4(g) + 4H2(g) → N2(g) + 4H2O(g), solve using standard enthalpies of formation
aev [14]

The standard enthalpy of formation (ΔH_f) is a measure of the energy released or consumed when one mole of a substance is created under standard conditions from its pure elements.

Standard enthalpies (ΔH_f) of formation for given reaction is 978.3 kJ

<h3>What is Standard enthalpies of formation?</h3>

The standard enthalpy of formation is defined as the enthalpy change when one mole of a substance in the standard state (1 atm of pressure and 298.15 K) is formed from its pure elements under the same conditions.

Given reaction ;

N_2O_4(g) + 4H_2 (g) - > N_2(g) + 4H_2O(g)

To Find : ΔH_f

ΔH_f = ∑np ΔH_f (products) – ∑np ΔH_f (reactants)

ΔH_f = [1(ΔH_f N_2) + 4(ΔH_f H_2O)] – [1(ΔH_f N_2O_4) + 4(ΔH_f H_2)]

ΔH_f = [1(0) + 4(-241.8)] – [1(+9.16) + 4(0)]

ΔH_f  = [4(-241.8)] – [1(+9.16)] = 978.3 kJ
