3 ml of a 66% acid solution was mixed with 8 ml of water. Find the concentration of the new mixture.
----------------------------------------------------------

3 ml of a 66% acid solution contains about 2 ml of the pure acid.

So, in the new mixture you have 2 ml of the pure acid per 11 ml of the total volume.

Thus the new mixture is = 18.(18)% acid solution.
