was presented below Ti(OCH(CH3)2)4 information; the density is 0.97 kg/l, the molecular weight is 284.26 g/mol For TiO2, the molecular weight is 80 g/mol Ti{OCH(CH3)2}4 + H2O → TiO2 + (CH3)2CHOH So, 20ml Ti[OCH(CH3)2]4 can be produced TiO2; TiO ( g ) = 1mol Ti[OCH (CH 3)2 ]4 20ml  0.97kg / l   80 g / mol TiO2 284.26 g / molTi[OCH (CH 3)2 ]4 1mol TiO2 So the amount of TiO2 = 5.46 g The percent
