No, it can only test whether a chemical is acidic, alkaline or neutral.

If it's acidic, it will turn the red litmus paper blue.

If it's alkaline, it will turn the blue litmus paper red.

But beware, when doing experiment, you must use both of the litmus paper at the same time since if a chemical/solution is neutral, both of the paper won't have any changes.
