A Blue litmus paper turns red in acid and stays blue in alkalin A red litmus paper turns blue in alkaline and stays red in acid
What color does red litmus paper turn into from a acid?
Red litmus paper remains red when dipped into an acid. Blue litmus paper will turn red in an acid. Similarly, Blue litmus remains blue in a base. Red litmus turns blue in a base.
What color would the litmus paper turn if it was blue?

Nothing, red litmus paper changes in the presence of an acid not a base, blue litmus paper turns red with nitric acid
What litmus paper would you use to test for an acid and what is the color change?
