Explain why is ortho nitrophenol more acidic than ortho methoxyphenol​

Ortho nitrophenol is more acidic than ortho-methoxyphenol.

Reason:

This is because the nitro-group is an electron-withdrawing group. In the case of ortho methoxyphenol; methoxy group is an electron-releasing group. Thus, it increases the electron density in the O−H bond and hence, the proton cannot be given out easily.
