Answer:
To covert methane to ethane:
Methane is treated with chlorine gas in the presence of ultraviolet light to form chloro methane.
Chloro methane is treated with sodium metal and dry ether to form the product ethane. This process is also called Wrutz synthesis.
The reaction goes as follows:
CH4 + Cl2 → CH3-Cl + HCl (in presence of sunlight)
Wurtz synthesis
2CH3-Cl +2Na → C2H6 (in presence of dry ether)
