Where are you with this one?
Convert mass CO2 to mass C.
Convert mass H2O to mass H(atoms).
1.0g - mass C - mass H = mass O

Convert g C to mols.
Convert g H to mols
Convert g O to mols.

Find the ratio for the empirical formula.
Then (emprical formula) x number = molar mass. Solve for number (rounded to whole number).
Then (empirical formula)<sub>n</sub> = molecular formula.
