hey mate here is your answer

Go in this order:ethane+dichlorine=ethyl chloride, +alcoholic KOH=ethene, +dibromine=ethylene bromide, +alc. KOH+NaNH2=ethyne,+red hot iron tube=benzene. Treat ethane with Cl2 in presence of sunlight . ... Then treat dibromoethane with NaNH2 to produce ethyne and then react it with red hot iron to produce benzene.
