Titanium(IV) oxide (TiO2) is a white substance produced by the action of sulfuric acid on the mineral ilmenite (FeTiO3):

FeTIO, + H,SO, → TIO, + FeSO, + H,0

Its opaque and nontoxic properties make it suitable as a pigment in plastics and paints. In one process, 8.00 × 103 kg of FeTi O3 yielded 3.67 × 103 kg of Ti O2. What is the percent yield of the reaction?

FeTIO, + H,SO, TIO, + FeSO, + H,0
