The wall will push back.

The wall will push back, in exactly the opposite direction, and with
exactly the same size force.

That's why the net force on the palm of your hand is zero, and that
in turn is the reason that your hand doesn't accelerate.

If you keep increasing the strength of your push, then eventually you
exceed the force that the wall is capable of delivering. Then the wall
crumbles and falls, your hand accelerates in the direction you're pushing,
and the crowd goes wild !

Answers:

B.) $F cos\theta=F_{n}$

C.) $F sin\theta=F_{g} \pm F_{f}$

Explanation:

The image attached shows the way the force $F$ is acting on the block. Now, if we draw a free body diagram of the situation and write the equations for the Net Force in X and Y, we will have the following:
