Answer:

Kc = 3.94

Explanation:

CH₃COOH(g) + C₂H₅OH(g) → CH₃COOC₂H₅(g) + H₂O(g)

Liquids aren't included in the equilibrium constant, but at 100°C, all four compounds are a gas.  So the equilibrium equation is:

Kc = [CH₃COOC₂H₅] [H₂O] / ([CH₃COOH] [C₂H₅OH])

Set up an ICE table for each row and calculate the value of Kc.  Then average the results.  (See picture.)

Kc ≈ (3.919 + 4.012 + 3.902) / 3

Kc ≈ 3.94
