C₂H₆ (excess) + Cl₂ □(→┴UV Light ) is the reaction.

Explanation:

  • Ethane is the 2 carbon alkane and the reagent is chlorine.
  • In presence of sunlight, the chlorine forms free radicles i.e Cl.
  • This free radicle attacks the ethane and replaces hydrogen radicle to form ethyl chloride and hydrogen chloride.
  • This probability of the chloride radicle attacking the ethane increases by taking excess of it.
  • This reaction follows the free radicle substitution process.
