Here’s your answer:
Process of Converting bromoethane to tert-butyl ether:
 
Bromoethane (C2H5Br) can be converted to tert-butyl ether by “Williamson's synthesis” with 
Bromoethane and Sodium tertbutoxide
C2H5Br + (CH3)CONa. --------> (CH3)3COC2H5+ NaBr

bromoethane reacts with alocoholic ethoxide to form ethoxyethane
CH3CH2Br + CH3CH2ONa ---------->CH3CH2-O-CH2CH3 +NaBr
