Many compounds dissolved in water will turn blue litmus red, since this indicates that the solution is acidic. For example, acid rain is formed by carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide dissolving in rain water.
This bitter chemical compound is called a base. Bases can react with acids to form salts as well as cause other chemical reactions.
Acid or Base Is the bitter chemical compound :)
Anything Acidic: pop, vinegar, HCl, H2NO3, and many many others... pick your favourite acid :)
Bases turn litmus paper blue. They also turn litmus solution ( which is mauve in color originally ) to blue.
base
Acid; Meaning it is ranked less than seven and at least zero on the pH scale.
No totally different, universal indicator is a mixture of chemical which shows the precise p.H of a substance, blue litmus paper reveals whether the substance is acidic or alkaline.
well as we know if we want to test a substance to see if its a base then we use red litmus paper and for an acid we use blue litmus paper. So if we are using blue litmus paper that means we are obviously testing to see if we have an acid right? So if we see it turn pink then that means that are substance is an acid but it is not very strong and also has some of a base to it. If you want to see what i mean look up a PH scale. Hope this helped. :)
the color of the litmus paper does not change.
Litmus paper is used moist to obtain the desired result. Litmus responds different to dry and wet conditions depending on the chemicals being checked.

A base/alkali substance will turn litmus paper blue.
litmus paper is genrally used to verify whether a substance is acid or base
Litmus is a natural dye indicator extracted from lichens.They react with acid (blue litmus turns red)& bases(red litmus turns blue) .Paper made with litmus dye indicators are called litmus paper and used in chemical laboratories.
pH paper and litmus paper
THE COLOUR of the litmus paper will not change as a salt solution is neutral
It depends. Litmus paper is used to test pH levels. Blue litmus paper turns red in the presence of acids, and red litmus paper turns blue in the presence of alkalines. Litmus paper is purple in neutral conditions.
No an acid will only change the litmus paper red regardless of of the substance color.
Litmus paper is used to indicate whether a substance is acidic or basic. Blue litmus paper turns red in the presence of an acid, while red litmus paper turns blue in the presence of a base.
pH.paper tells the strength of an acid and alkali and litmus paper tells that whether the substance is an acid or an alkali.
