Detailed Solution

The Van-Arkel process is used to purify metals like Ti or Zr. A little amount of iodine is used to heat the metal, which transforms it into volatile tetraiodide. This tetraiodide is then electrically heated over 1800K with a tungsten filament, decomposing it into pure metal, which is then deposited on a tungsten filament.

The balanced reaction equation is,

TiCl4+4NaTi+4NaCl

Hence, option A is correct.
