Solution

The correct option is B benzaldehyde
The reduction of benzoyl chloride with $P d$ and $B a S O_{4} / C a S O_{3}$ produces benzaldehyde.
$B a S O_{4}$ is poisoned with sulphur so that further reduction of benzaldehyde is prevented. This reaction is known as Rosenmund reaction.
$C_{6} H_{5} C O C l + H_{2} P d / B a S O_{4} / C a S O_{3} - ----------- \to C_{6} H_{5} C H O + H C l$
