my engine seems to be overheating at the moment and i have looked at the coolant tank and its empty, would this be the reason why it is overheating and if so which would be the best coolant to buy for it, sorry about the daft question im new to driving

You need to have the system pressure tested to find the leak. Driving it could lead to severe engine damage.

Coolant is what keeps the engine cool......... hence the name "coolant"
