Here is a hint to help you with the assignment.
All of your sentences contain a demonstrative adjective (esta, estos, esa, estes, etc.) modifying the antecedent of the demonstrative pronoun. Simply pick the demonstrative pronoun that corresponds in gender and number to the adjective. (and using the one that shows the correct spatial location).
For example:
Este (adjetivo) libro es mi favorito. Mi favorito no es éste (pronombre).
(The accents on the pronouns are no longer recommended unless ambiguity exists.) Beginners may prefer to include them to differentiate between the pronouns and adjectives until they are more familiar with them.
