What quantity of 64% acetic acid solution must be mixed with a 29% acetic acid solution to produce 595 mL of 52% solution?
------------------
Equation:
acid + acid = acid
0.64x + 0.29(595-x) = 0.52*595
-----
64x + 29*595 - 29x = 52*595
------
35x = 21*595
x = 17*21
x = 357 mL (amt. of 64% solution needed)
---
595-357 = 238 mL (amt of 29% solution needed)
