Explanation:

The word "confiscated" means seized with authority. In the context of the sentence about the professor taking the cellphone after the student answered during class, "confiscated" is the appropriate synonym as it implies an action by an authority - figure (the professor). "liberated" means set free which is the opposite in meaning here, and "stole" implies a wrongful act without authority.

confiscated - seized with authority
