This preparation will be little complicated because as ethane won't react good, so the normal way of preparation is possible with the Ethanol and Hydrobromic Acid (HBr) which will help to get the ethyl bromide and Water.

CH3CH2OH + HBr ---> CH3CH2Br + H2O

At the same time, when you need to get ethyl bromide from ethane, using the bromine along with the 2nd product Hydrobromic Acid will help you.

C2H6 + Br2 ---> CH3CH2Br + HBr
