Detailed explanation-1: -The situation is ironic because Claudius was not genuinely praying. He was performing the act, but his mind was far from the prayer, though Hamlet did not know about that.
Detailed explanation-2: -What is the irony of Hamlets decision while Claudius is at prayer? It is ironic because Hamlet thought that he could not kill him because he would be sent to heaven but Claudius says that his prayer didnt work. This means that Hamlet could have killed him but he is a coward.
Detailed explanation-3: -Detailed answer: One of the elements representing dramatic irony is the rumor about the King’s death caused by the snake’s bite. Claudius spreads the lie that Hamlet’s father died because of the snake’s poison, and Denmark people believe him.
Detailed explanation-4: -Claudius is killed when Hamlet forces him to drink the poison cup while he also stabs Claudius with the poisoned weapon. This is fitting because Claudius killed Hamlet’s father by uses poison, and he is dying the same way.
