### The empirical formula is $C_1N_2O_3H_4$
Explicar
## Step1: Identify the subscripts of each element<br />### The molecular formula is $C_{14}N_{28}O_{42}H_{56}$. The subscripts are 14 for Carbon (C), 28 for Nitrogen (N), 42 for Oxygen (O), and 56 for Hydrogen (H).<br />## Step2: Find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the subscripts<br />### The GCD of 14, 28, 42, and 56 is 14.<br />## Step3: Divide each subscript by the GCD<br />### Dividing each subscript by 14 gives:<br />- Carbon: $\frac{14}{14} = 1$<br />- Nitrogen: $\frac{28}{14} = 2$<br />- Oxygen: $\frac{42}{14} = 3$<br />- Hydrogen: $\frac{56}{14} = 4$
