An acidic solution of dichromate is electrolyzed for $8 \ min$ using $2 \ A$ current. As per the following equation: $Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-} + 14H^{+} + 6e^{-} \rightarrow 2Cr^{3+} + 7H_{2}O$. The amount of $Cr^{3+}$ obtained was $0.104 \ g$. The efficiency of the process (in $\%$) is (Take: $F = 96000 \ C$,At. mass of chromium $= 52$)
