Explain Williamson's ether synthesis.

Explanation

Explanation
General eq.
OR
Any other correct equation
`e.g. R-X + R^1 -Ona to R - O - R^1 + NaX`
Detailed Answer :
When an alkyl halide reacts with sodium alkoxide to form ethers.
`R - X + R^1 - O - Na to R -O -R^1 + NaX`
`R =CH_3,R^1 = C_2H_5 X=Cl`
`CH_3 - Cl + C_2H_5 - ONa to CH_3-O - C_2H_5 + NaCl`
