(i) Catalytic hydrogenation of ethyne.

C2H2 Ethyne+H2300°CNickleH2C=CH2 ethene [ethylene]+H2300°CNickleC2H6ethane\underset{\text{ Ethyne}}{\text{C}2\text{H}2} + \text{H}2 \xrightarrow[300\degree\text{C}]{\text{Nickle}} \underset{\text{ ethene [ethylene]}}{\text{H}2\text{C}=\text{C}\text{H}2} + \text{H}2 \xrightarrow[300\degree\text{C}]{\text{Nickle}} \underset{\text{ethane}}{\text{C}2\text{H}6}

(ii) Preparation of ethyne from ethylene dibromide.
