The probability of a chance event is close to 0. which statement about the event is true/ (a) the event is likely to occur (b) the event has the same chance of occuring or not occuring (c) the event is unlikely to occur (d) the event is definately not going to occur

The probability is always between 0 and 1 inclusive. If the probability is 0, the event is definitely not going to occur, and if the probability is 1, the event will definitely occur. 

Now, if the probability of a chance event is close to 0, then the event is unlikely to occur.
