Solution
The correct option is A I : LiAlH4 II : Pd/BaSO4 (Rosenmund)
LiAlH4 reduces acid chloride into alcohol.
CH3COClLiAlH4→CH3CH2OH
Acid chlorides are reduced into aldehyde by Pd/BaSO4 poisoned by sulphur to avoid further reduction of carbonyl compound into alcohol. This reaction is called Rosenmund's reduction.
