plz mark me as brainlist ✌️☺️☺️
Explanation:
Ethane reacts with chlorine by free radical halogenation in the presence of sunlight. In the presence of sunlight, Cl2 breaks down (homolytically) to form two chlorine radicals. This is the initiation step. ... The generated chlorine radical can then react with ethane to give an ethane radical (C2H5*) and HCl.
