Which two, or more, of the following actions would increase the energy stored in a parallel plate capacitor when a constant potential difference is applied across the plates?

In a particular chemical reaction, the energy of the reactants is 30 kj and the energy of the products is 5 kj. 
 the maximum energy of the system is 40 kj. sketch a potential energy diagram for this reaction. make sure to label the energy of the reactants, the energy of the products, the activation energy, and the enthalpy change for the reaction.
