Solution:

$\underset{\text{acetyl} \, \text{chloride}}{\text{CH}_{\text{3}} - \text{COCl}} \, \text{+} \, \text{H}_{\text{2}} \overset{\text{Pd-BaSO}_{\text{4}}}{ \rightarrow } \underset{\text{acetaldehyde}}{\text{CH}_{\text{3}} \text{CHO}} \, \text{+} \, \text{HCl}$
This reaction is called Rosenmund's reaction.
