Earth did not exist 5 billion years ago. What would become Earth was part of a collapsing cloud of gas and dust that would eventually form the solar system. Earth itself formed about 4.55 billion years ago. When it first formed it was made largely of molten rock.

What would be happened to the earth after one hundred billion years?

one hundred billion isn't a small number. In 100,000,000,000 there won't be an Earth. According to physicists, the universe is expected to end in 15 billion years. It might expand into a big empty void or crunch up into super dense material, maybe the size of an atom. That too if there even is an earth in 15 billion years. In 5 billion years, our Sun will die. It will expand and expand, swallowing up the Earth. It might not make it to five billion years, with asteroid impacts obliterating it (remember, 5 billion years is A LOT of time). In conclusion, in 5000 million years, the Earth will be swallowed up in a fiery mass. Hope this answers your question

What is the likelihood of mass extinction happening on earth?

If you wait around long enough, it is 100%. Although the earth has an estimated five billion years left before being literally burned to a cinder (or ash, depending on how events actually unfold), by the end of one billion years the earth will have become completely unable to support life of any kind. Even if some life survives beyond one billion years, nothing will survive after five billion, when the sun runs out of fuel. You'd better get those wedding plans rolling.

No, Earth will not last forever. Eventually, the sun will run out of fuel and expand, engulfing the planet in about five billion years. Additionally, natural disasters, climate change, and human impact could also affect the longevity of Earth as a habitable planet.
