 why do we use  BaSO4 in this reaction? and what would happen if  only palladium is used?

BaSO4 is used to control the reduction to aldehyde otherwise the aldehyde will be further reduced to alcohol..

BaSO4 is one of imp. components of lindlar's catalyst which reduces the alkyne to alkene and benzoyl chloride to benzenealdehyde .here BaSO4 acts as solvent

BaSO4 is used to poison palladium to reduce its reactivity by getting absorbed on its surface and reducing the surface area and hence reactivity....this helps in controlled reduction to aldehyde

 barium sulphate is responsilble for poisoning the surface of the catalyst preventing over reduction. If this is not done the aldehyde formed will be easily reduced to the primary alcohol.
