a the use of chemical weapons
b the start of the war on russia
c the bombing of the hawaiian seaport of pearl harbor

e the genocidal behavior of the germans in belgium

Explanation:

For the first question: The Espionage Act of 1917 included provisions that criminalized obstructing the military draft and allowed for the seizure of mail that was deemed to interfere with the war effort or draft process. The other listed acts do not match the described provisions.
For the second question: President Woodrow Wilson asked Congress to declare war on Germany on April 2, 1917, largely due to the discovery of the Zimmerman Telegram, which revealed a German plot to ally with Mexico against the United States. The other options are incorrect: chemical weapons were not the primary trigger, the war with Russia was not the cause, Pearl Harbor occurred in 1941, and reports of German actions in Belgium were from earlier in the war and not the immediate reason for the 1917 declaration.

Answer:

First question: a. The Espionage Act
Second question: d. The discovery of the Zimmerman telegrams
