question about empirical formula

1.00g of sulphur dissolved completely in an excess of liquid ammonia to give 420cm3 of hydrogen sulphide, H2S, measured at standard temp and pressure, and also a solid containing the elements nitrogen and sulphur. deduce the empirical formula of the solid.
at standard temp and pressure, 1 mole of gas occupies 22.4 dm3

What have you done so far?

HINT: work out the moles of gas formed
