Answer:
o-nitrophenol forms intramolecular Hydrogen bond and no association occurs whereas molecules of p-nitrophenol get associated through intermolecular Hydrogen bonding and boils relatively at higher temperature(above the boiling point of water). Hence, only ortho-nitrophenol is steam volatile.
