    D) 2, 4, and 5

    Explanation:

    In order to fully comprehend the answer choices we must take a close look at the value of ΔH° = 31.05. The enthalpy change of the reaction is positive. A positive value of enthalpy of reaction implies that heat was absorbed in the course of the reaction.

    If heat is absorbed in a reaction, that reaction is endothermic.

    Since ∆Hreaction = ∆H products - ∆H reactants, a positive value of ∆Hreaction implies that ∆Hproducts >∆Hreactants, hence the answer choice above.
