The molecular ion peak at m/z = 152 suggests a molecular weight consistent with the candidates, while the IR data indicates the presence of a carboxylic acid (broad peak) and a carbonyl group (sharp peak at 1715 cm^-1). The NMR data provides information about the hydrogen environment, indicating aromatic protons and a singlet likely corresponding to the carboxylic acid proton. Analyzing these data points leads us to conclude that the unknown compound is 4-bromobenzoic acid, as it fits the spectral characteristics provided."}
