Quincy insisted that each one of his team members demonstrate loyalty in the following sentence which word is the abstract noun

Answers

Answer: loyalty.

Explanation: a noun is a word, other than a pronoun, used to identify any of a class of people, places, or things, or to name a particular one of these. An abstract noun is a noun denoting an idea, quality, or state rather than a concrete object. In the given sentence we can see an example of an abstract noun in the word "loyalty" because it is denoting a quality of the team members.
Loyalty. A noun is a person, place, or thing; but something that is abstract is more of an idea, a concept. You can hold a piece of pie, but you can't hold loyalty.
