Element atomic number position
Ba 56 group 2, period 6
Ca 12 group 2, period 3
S 16 group 16, period 3
Si `14 group 14, period 3
Now, you need to know the properties of the different type of elements and the tendencies on the periodic table.
The metallic elements are, those placed on the left side of the periodic table, are the ones that release an electron more easily, so they will requiere less energy to give it up when forming chemical bonds.
The higher the metallic character the less the energy need to give up an electron.
The metallic character grows as the group number decreases (goes to the left) period increases (goes downward), so among the elements considered, Barium will require the least amount of energy to give un an electron when forming chemical bonds.

Answer:
Choice d. No effect will be observed as long as other factors (temperature, in particular) are unchanged.
Explanation:
The equilibrium constant of a reaction does not depend on the pressure. For this particular reaction, the equilibrium quotient is:
![Q = \displaystyle \frac{[\mathrm{SO_2\, (g)}]}{[\mathrm{O_2\, (g)}]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Q%20%3D%20%5Cdisplaystyle%20%5Cfrac%7B%5B%5Cmathrm%7BSO_2%5C%2C%20%28g%29%7D%5D%7D%7B%5B%5Cmathrm%7BO_2%5C%2C%20%28g%29%7D%5D%7D)
.
Note that the two sides of this balanced equation contain an equal number of gaseous particles. Indeed, both ![[\mathrm{SO_2\, (g)}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cmathrm%7BSO_2%5C%2C%20%28g%29%7D%5D)
and ![[\mathrm{O_2\, (g)}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cmathrm%7BO_2%5C%2C%20%28g%29%7D%5D)
will increase if the pressure is increased through compression. However, because 
and 
have the same coefficients in the equation, their concentrations are raised to the same power in the equilibrium quotient 
.
As a result, the increase in pressure will have no impact on the value of 
. If the system was already at equilibrium, it will continue to be at an equilibrium even after the change to its pressure. Therefore, no overall effect on the equilibrium position should be visible.
Sorry, I won't understand your words.
