Ortho nitrophenol is more acidic than ortho methoxy phenol because:

1. The NO2-group increases the electron density in phenol while the methoxy group decreases the electron density in phenol
2. The nitro-group is an electron-withdrawing group while the methoxy group is an electron-releasing group
3. The methoxy-group is an electron-withdrawing group while the nitro group is an electron-releasing group
4. None of the above

The ionisation constant of phenol is higher than that of ethanol because -                   

1. Phenoxide ion is bulkier than ethoxide

2. Phenoxide ion is a stronger base than ethoxide

3. Phenoxide ion is stabilised through delocalisation

4. Phenoxide ion is less stable than ethoxide
