Correct Answer: (2)


Solution : The correct choice is the second option "disposed of" as it is the appropriate phrase to use in this context, indicating the action of getting rid of or selling something, typically through an auction or sale.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Disposed off : It is not the correct phrase. The correct phrase is "disposed of".
  • Disposed towards : It is used to describe one's attitude or inclination towards something or someone.

Therefore, the correct sentence is "The chair will be disposed of i n an auction".
