Answer:

Solution:

Addition of ${NO}_{2}$ is an electrophilic addition. The $N$ increases the electron density on the left benzene ring, whereas the carbonyl group decreases the charge density of the right benzene group. As a result, ${NO}_{2}$ is added to the left benzene group due to higher charge density.
