we can convert it by the process known as decarboxylation of fatty acid
Propionate can react with soda lime (a mixture of sodium hydroxide and calcium oxide) to form propanoate ions. This reaction is often used to convert propionic acid to its corresponding salt, sodium propionate, in organic chemistry.
The hydrolysis of ethyl propanoate with aqueous sodium hydroxide will produce propanoic acid and ethyl alcohol.
Sodium propanoate (or propionate) when heated with soda lime ethane gas is produced.
To produce ethyl propanoate from iodoethane, you would first need to react iodoethane (CH3CH2I) with sodium propanoate (CH3CH2COONa) in the presence of dry ethanol (CH3CH2OH) or other esterification catalysts. The reaction would result in the formation of ethyl propanoate (CH3CH2COOCH2CH3) along with sodium iodide (NaI) as a byproduct.
Ethane can be prepared in the laboratory by reacting sodium ethoxide with ethyl iodide in anhydrous conditions. Another method involves the reaction of sodium acetate with sodium hydroxide followed by treatment with sulfuric acid to yield ethane gas.

Ethane cannot be directly prepared from sodium propionate. Sodium propionate can be converted to propanoic acid through acidification. Propanoic acid can then be decarboxylated to produce ethane, but this process involves additional steps and reagents.
Ethane cannot be directly prepared from iodoethane. However, iodoethane (also known as ethyl iodide) can be converted to ethane through a series of chemical reactions involving dehydrohalogenation or Wurtz reaction. This typically involves using strong bases like sodium or potassium hydroxide to remove the iodine atom from iodoethane and convert it to ethane.
this is not possible yet..scientists have discovered an enzyme that can convert ethane to methane..however, if u take indirect route ..then its possible..
Ethyl bromide can be converted into methane through a Wurtz reaction, where it reacts with metallic sodium in dry ether to form sodium bromide and ethane. The resulting ethane can then be further reduced to form methane using a reducing agent such as zinc powder with concentrated hydrochloric acid. This reaction sequence involves serial substitution and reduction reactions.
Methyl bromide can be converted to ethane through a nucleophilic substitution reaction using a strong base like sodium or potassium hydroxide. The reaction involves the displacement of the bromine atom by a hydroxide ion to form ethyl alcohol, which can then be further dehydrated to form ethene. Ethene can undergo hydrogenation to yield ethane.
