I recently removed windows 10 from my pc, how can i merge the unallocated space with /dev/nvme0n1p5? There's the boot partition between so i can't just adjust one of them and merge with the other using the resize/move button. How can i do it?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I moved the boot parition successfully but i'm afrad that it's gonna break my system somehow. Do i have to reinstall the grub? How? And by the way now that the two partitions are close together if i try to resize/move the "new Partition #1" i can't expand it nor move it anywhere, same thing with /dev/nvme0n1p5
Thanks i will try this as soon as i can
Just to add to what @skullgiver@popplesburger.hilciferous.nl said, in case you break Grub, you might want to use Boot Repair on the live disk or something similar. Then you don't have to deal with the terminal commands people have suggested to you.
