A hydroxy compound $(\mathrm{X})$ with molar mass $122 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}$ is acetylated with acetic anhydride, using a large excess of the reagent ensuring complete acetylation of all hydroxyl groups. The product obtained has a molar mass of $290 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}$. The number of hydroxyl groups present in compound (X) is:
Given below are two statements: Statement I: Benzene is nitrated to give nitrobenzene, which on further treatment with $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{COCl} / \mathrm{AlCl}_{3}$ will give  Statement II: $-\mathrm{NO}_{2}$ group is a $m$-directing, and deactivating group. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below
Given below are two statements: Statement I: $\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3}\right)_{3} \stackrel{\oplus}{\mathrm{C}}$ is more stable than $\stackrel{\oplus}{\mathrm{C}} \mathrm{H}_{3}$ as nine hyperconjugation interactions are possible in $\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3}\right)_{3} \stackrel{\oplus}{\mathrm{C}}$. Statement II: $\stackrel{\oplus}{\mathrm{C}} \mathrm{H}_{3}$ is less stable than $\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3}\right)_{3} \stackrel{\oplus}{\mathrm{C}}$ as only three hyperconjugation interactions are possible in $\stackrel{\oplus}{\mathrm{C}} \mathrm{H}_{3}$. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
