Bromoethane can be prepared from ethane by the substitution of hydrogen by bromine. What are the two main problems with using this method?

What do you refer to by problems???

If you mean 'problems in using this method to prepare bromoethane' then my answer is
1. It is difficult to handle gases in a reaction
2. UV light is needed for this reaction to take place
