Identify the given equilibrium constant (Kc) for the reaction: C6H12 ⇌ CH3C5H9, which is 0.143.
Understand that the equilibrium constant expression for this reaction is Kc = [CH3C5H9] / [C6H12], where the brackets denote the concentration of each species at equilibrium.
Since Kc is given as 0.143, this means that the ratio of the concentration of methylcyclopentane to cyclohexane at equilibrium is 0.143.
To find the equilibrium concentration ratio of CH3C5H9 to C6H12, use the expression: [CH3C5H9] / [C6H12] = 0.143.
Conclude that the equilibrium concentration ratio of CH3C5H9 to C6H12 is directly given by the value of Kc, which is 0.143.
