Answer:
Molecular mass
Explanation:
Molecular formulas is the actual number of atoms of each element in the compound while empirical formulas is the simplest or reduced ratio of the elements in the compound.
Thus,
Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass
Where, n is any positive number from 1, 2, 3...
Thus if the molecular mass is known, then we can find the value of n which results to molecular formula.
The branch of chemistry that the chemist might use will be the branch of <em>organic chemistry</em>. This is because gasoline is an organic compound. We can say that a compound is organic if it contains a carbon atom. Gasoline is composed of long chains of alkanes (hydrocarbons with single bonds) ranging from 4 carbon atoms to 12 carbon atoms.

CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O
From the equation, we know that methane and carbon dioxide have the same number of moles.
no. of moles of CO₂ produced = no. of moles of methane
= 4.5 × 10⁻³ ÷ (12 + 1×4)
= 2.8125 × 10⁻⁴
∴ mass of CO₂ = 2.8125 × 10⁻⁴ × (12 + 16×2)
= 12.375 × 10⁻³ g
