Molecular formulation permit you recognize approaches many atoms of each component are in a compound, and empirical formulation permit you recognize the simplest or maximum decreased ratio of aspects in a compound. If a compound's molecular formulation would be unable to be decreased to any extent further, then the empirical formulation is the comparable because of the fact the molecular formulation.

From the data, the empirical formula would be CaBr2. The molecular formula could be CaBr2 from molecular weight data, or Ca2Br4. You must ask your question more clearly.

Unless you are doing Net ionic formulas, then it would be:
Ca + Br -------> CaBr
