$-\mathrm{Cl}$ shows $+\mathrm{M}$ and $-\mathrm{I}$ but inductive effect dominates.
$-\mathrm{NO}_2$ shows $-\mathrm{M}$ and $-\mathrm{I}$.
Electrophilic substitution $\alpha \frac{1}{-\mathrm{M} \text { and }-\mathrm{I}}$
$\alpha+\mathrm{M} \text { and }+\mathrm{I}$
Hence, order is $\mathrm{B}>\mathrm{A}>\mathrm{C}>\mathrm{D}$.

(Given atomic masses of $A=64 ; B=40 ; C=32 u$ )
What is structure of $(A)$ ?
The original compound showed these properties also :
$\mathop {{C_9}{H_{12}}{O_2}}\limits_{(A)} \,\xrightarrow{{Na}}\,{H_2}$ liberated
$\mathop {{C_9}{H_{12}}{O_2}}\limits_{(A)} \,\xrightarrow{{Br}}$ no rapid reaction
$\mathop {{C_9}{H_{12}}{O_2}}\limits_{(A)} \,\xrightarrow[{cool}]{{Cr{O_3}\,/\,{H^ + }}}{C_9}{H_8}{O_3}$
