The correct word here is 'abundance.' The meaning of 'Paucity' is 'the presence of something in only small or insufficient quantities or amounts.' As we are looking for opposite word, option 3 is the correct word.  

Duplicity => deceitfulness.

Dogmatic => narrow-minded

Dispel => make (a doubt, feeling, or belief) disappear.
