Here is your answer

Firstly we clorinate the ethane in the presence of light, it gives chloroethane. Then it react with KOH and forms ethanol, and in last KMnO4, an oxidising agent, react with ethanol and forms ethanoic acid. Reactions are below:-

CH3-CH3 + Cl2 →→→→ CH3-CH2-Cl + HCl

CH3-CH2-Cl + KOH →→→ CH3-CH2-OH + KCl

CH3-CH2-OH →→KMnO4→→ CH3-COOH
