The molecular formula of the compound that we are required to find is the compound C4H8O8
<h3>What is empirical formula?</h3>
The empirical formula of a compound is a formula that shows the ratio of each atom present in the compound. We will start by dividing each mass with the relative atomic mass of the atom.
Carbon - 48.38 g/12 Hydrogen - 6.74 g/1 Oxygen - 53.5 g/16
Carbon - 4 Hydrogen - 6.74 Oxygen - 8.9
Dividing through by the lowest ratio;
Carbon - 4/4 Hydrogen - 6.74/4 Oxygen 8.9/4
Carbon 1 Hydrogen 2 Oxygen 2
The empirical formula is CH2O2.

[12 + 2 + 32]n = 180
n = 180/[12 + 2 + 32]
n =4

The fewer the carbon atoms, the closer it is to being a gas. The only one you have to check out is A which is hexane. You know that gasoline at the pumps has 8 carbons and its a liquid. So B and C are both not gases because they are above 8.
C6 (hexane) is a liquid at room temperature not a gas.
The answer is D. If there is a gas present, it must be C3
