Cyclohexane (C6H12) undergoes a molecular rearrangement in the presence of AlCl3 to form methylcyclopentane (CH3C5H9) according to the equation: C6H12 ⇌ CH3C5H9 If Kc = 0.143 at 25°C for this reaction predict the direction in which the system

The reaction will shift leftwards, towards the formation of more cyclohexane at 25 °C

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the given chemical reaction, we can write the law of mass action (equilibrium expression) as shown below:

Thus, since Kc < 1, we can conclude there are more moles of cyclohexane at equilibrium (denominator is greater than numerator), therefore, the reaction will shift leftwards, towards the formation of more cyclohexane at 25 °C.

Best regards.

the answer is b & c i believe : )

the answer is 0.8m.
