'. . . to broker peace between them.'
Identify the Part of Speech of the underlined expression.
Answer: C
In 'to broker peace', the expression is a verb.
'To broker' is the infinitive form: 'to' plus the base verb 'broker', meaning to arrange or negotiate. Its object is 'peace'. Roopa intervened in order to broker peace, so the phrase names an action.
'Broker' can be a noun for a person who negotiates deals, but here it follows 'to' and takes an object, so it works as a verb. It is not a preposition, because 'to' here is an infinitive marker and not a link to a noun, and the phrase describes no noun, so it is not an adjective.
