C2H5OH + conc. H2SO4 (170℃)=C2H4 (ethene)
C2H5OH+Dil. KMnO4 [O] = CH3COOH
CH3COOH + SOCl2= CH3COCl
CH3COCl+ Pd+ baso4 + xylene=CH3CHO
CH3CHO + Al(OC2H5)3 = CH3COOC2H5 (Ethyl acetate)
C2H5OH+Dil. KMnO4 [O] = CH3COOH
CH3COOH + SOCl2= CH3COCl
CH3COCl+ Pd+ baso4 + xylene=CH3CHO
CH3CHO + Al(OC2H5)3 = CH3COOC2H5 (Ethyl acetate)

The overall transformation is:
2 CH3CH2OH + [O] → CH3C(=O)OCH2CH3 + x H2O
The individual steps are first, oxidation of ethanol to acetic acid and this can be done with a variety of reagents such as dichromate ([O]).
CH3CH2OH + [O] → CH3C(=O)-OH + H2O
(where [O] is the oxidant and water necessarily forms).
Then, the second step is an esterification, typically catalyzed by acid:
CH3C(=O)-OH + CH3CH2OH (+ acid catalyst) → CH3C(=O)OCH2CH3 + H2O
2 CH3CH2OH + [O] → CH3C(=O)OCH2CH3 + x H2O
