Detailed Solution

The reduction of nitrobenzene with Sn/HCl produces aniline.

Aniline can be produced by reducing nitrobenzene with a metal and acid (Sn/HCl, Zn/HCl, etc.). Since they are reduced more quickly than nitrobenzene, it is impossible to distinguish between the intermediate products nitrosobenzene and phenylhydroxylamine.

Hence, option D is correct.
