☆☞ Here is ur answer ☜☆

✔✔ Ortho nitrophenol is a stronger acid.

✔✔ On the other hand, methoxy group is an electron-releasing group.

✔✔ Thus, it increases the electron density on the oxygen of the O−H bond and hence, the proton cannot be given out easily.

✔✔ For this reason, para-nitrophenol is more acidic than para-methoxyphenol.
