The lock could be opened by no one. -This is the answer.

About passive voice:

  • The given sentence is in active voice. We have to change it into passive voice.
  • When a sentence is changed into passive voice, the subject becomes passive/ inactive. So the subject 'no one' becomes 'by no one' and comes at the last in passive voice.
  • The object and the action done take importance. Thus the object 'the lock' is used to begin the sentence in passive.
  • The tense must be retained. The verb takes its past participle form.
  • The 'be' verb will precede the past participle according to its tense. So the verb 'opened' changes into 'be opened' having the modal verb 'could' before it.
  • Therefore the answer is: The lock could be opened by no one.
