too far removed from the antecedent
no definite antecedent
indefinite pronoun

Answer 1

too far removed from the antecedent

Answer 2

too far removed from the antecedent

Step-by-step explanation:

"Sam sat by the window all day, trying to finish the novel. It was too small to give much light."

It stands for window, but as it has been placed near novel, the reader may link it to novel rather than to window. However, out of the clues in the sentence ,we can infer that it refers to the window because the attribution given makes reference to the window. A window is small and gives little light, a book does not.
