Titanium is extracted by reacting titanium chloride with sodium.

TiCl4+4Na→Ti+4NaCl\text{TiCl}_4 + 4\text{Na} \rightarrow \text{Ti} + 4\text{NaCl}TiCl4​+4Na→Ti+4NaCl

Relative atomic masses: Na=23\text{Na} = 23Na=23, Cl=35.5\text{Cl} = 35.5Cl=35.5, Ti=48\text{Ti} = 48Ti=48.

What is the percentage atom economy for the production of titanium?
