Answer: By the process of dehydrohalogenation in the presence of alcoholic KOH.

Explanation:

When alcoholic KOH is added to the haloalkane, it undergoes a process of dehydrohalogenation and leads to the production of alkene.

In this process, the beta hydrogen atoms are released with the halogen atom, to form a double bond between alpha and beta carbon atom.

The above reaction is shown in the form of equation in the image below.
