Solution

The correct option is D $\frac{M}{6}$
The reduction of one molecule of nitrobenzene to aniline requires $6$ hydrogen atoms.

The reaction is as follows:

$C_{6} H_{5} N O_{2} + 6 [H] \to C_{6} H_{5} N H_{2} + 2 H_{2} O$

Thus, the equivalent weight of nitrobenzene is $\frac{M}{6}$ .

Here, $M$ represents the molecular weight of nitrobenzene.

Hence, the correct option is $D$
