Conjugate base of ortho-nitro benzoic acid is more stable than Conjugate base of para-nitro benzoic acid, because nitro group present at Ortho position which has more resonance and -I ( inductive) as compare to nitro group present para position. SO Conjugate base formed from nitro benzoic acid is stablized.
