Solution

The correct option is D $C H_{2}$ and $C_{3} H_{6}$
$C H_{2}$ and $C_{3} H_{6}$ could represent the empirical formula and the molecular formula of a given compound.
When we multiply empirical formula with certain number, we get molecular formula.
Thus, when we multiply $C H_{2}$ with 3, we get $C_{3} H_{6}$ .
