Answer:

"that I had no anxiety" is the noun clause

Explanation:

I must confess that I had no anxiety.

The underlined portion (clause) is doing the work of a noun, and hence it is a noun clause.

To identify a noun clause, ask the question "What" or "Who" after the subject. In this case:

I must confess...

What?

"that I had no anxiety"

Hence the given clause is a noun clause.

Because a noun is the name of a thing or a person, you will get a noun upon asking the question What (for thing) or Who (for person).

Remember that a noun clause is not a noun, it is doing the work of a noun.
