Question

  1. to whom will creon give honor?

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In the context of the play "Antigone" by Sophocles, Creon, the king of Thebes, states that he will give honor to those who are loyal to the state (specifically, those who support his rule and the laws of Thebes) and will show dishonor to traitors (like Polynices, who he sees as a traitor for attacking Thebes). More precisely, Creon intends to honor those who die fighting for Thebes (like Eteocles, Polynices' brother who died defending the city) and dishonor those who betray it (like Polynices, who died attacking it).

Answer:

Creon will give honor to those who are loyal to Thebes (specifically, those who die fighting for Thebes, like Eteocles) and show dishonor to traitors (like Polynices). In more direct terms related to the question's focus on "to whom", Creon will give honor to the person (or those) who died fighting for Thebes (Eteocles, in the context of the play's central conflict about burial rights) and those who uphold his rule and Theban law.
