उत्तर
Ethane is first converted (oxidised) into ethyl alcohol, and then ethyl alcohol is oxidised into acetic acid in the presence of platinum at 300°C.
\[\ce{\underset{Ethane}{2C2H6} + O2 ->[475K Cu tube][120atm]\underset{Ethyl alcohol}{2C2H5OH}->[Pt][300^\circ C]\underset{Acetic acid}{CH3COOH} + H2O}\]
