Right means consistent with the truth, wrong inconsistent with the truth.
Truth can be empirical, analytical, evaluative, or metaphysical:

contained with regard to a linear question it somewhat is a common count of one answer being perfect and diverse being incorrect. In a ethical grab 22 subject, it somewhat is the accepted of one answer being solid and diverse one being evil (on a grand scale) or substantially lots much less solid.

Opinion. No.really. Read on. At one time in history it was "right" tp beat your wife. Now it's wrong. So it's really a matter of what's socially acceptable at the time.

In the case of a linear question it's a simple matter of one answer being correct and the other being incorrect. In an ethical dilemma, it's the quality of one answer being good and the other one being evil (on a grand scale) or considerably less good.

They're the two halves of the moral sphere. They're equal and neither can exist without the other.

?Depends on the question.
What is sociably acceptable.
If your friend steals an apple (takes it without paying) you know its wrong so don't do it.
If you do something and lie about it it is not acceptable behavior.

Right is the correct thing to do.
Wrong is the incorrect thing to do.
Right is also a direction, just so you know.

That depends, by which standard of morals and values are you presenting this question against.
