Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine whether ortho-nitrophenol and para-nitrophenol have hydrogen bonding in their molecules and to explain which of the two has a higher boiling point, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Draw the Structures - **Ortho-nitrophenol (o-nitrophenol)** has the -NO2 group positioned adjacent to the -OH group on the benzene ring. - **Para-nitrophenol (p-nitrophenol)** has the -NO2 group positioned opposite the -OH group on the benzene ring. ### Step 2: Identify Hydrogen Bonding - Both ortho-nitrophenol and para-nitrophenol can form hydrogen bonds due to the presence of the hydroxyl (-OH) group. ...
