What else can I help you with?
How You are given three clear colorless unknown solutions and red and blue litmus papers. Describe the steps you might take to correctly identify each solution as acidic basic or neutral.?
Test each unknown solution with both red and blue litmus papers. If red litmus turns blue, the solution is basic. If blue litmus turns red, the solution is acidic. If both red and blue litmus papers remain the same, the solution is neutral.
What color will acids and bases turn litmus paper?
Acid turns it in red, while base will turn it blue.
Does a base turn blue litmus paper blue?
yes a blue litmus paper turns red when put into an acid
What does an acid do to blue litmus?
If a substance changes the color of a blue litmus paper to red, it is acidic blue to red
What colour would litmus turn in acids?
blue litmus paper turns to red when its in contact with acid

Acid turns it in red, while base will turn it blue.
Why did you need to test with both red and blue litmus paper?
Red litmus paper turns blue in basic solutions, while blue litmus paper turns red in acidic solutions. By using both types of litmus paper, you can determine if a solution is acidic if blue litmus turns red or basic if red litmus turns blue. This allows for a more accurate determination of the pH of a solution.
Why is it important to use blue and red litmus paper to determine pH?
Because if you only use red litmus paper and the solution you tested kept the paper red, you would think that the solution would also make the blue litmus paper turn red too. But what if the solution was neutral? Then the blue litmus paper would stayblue instead of turn red. Thats why you need to use both blue and red litmus paper.
Is acid red or blue litmus?
Acid turns blue litmus red and maintains red litmus at the same color.
Does a base turn blue litmus paper blue?
yes a blue litmus paper turns red when put into an acid
Does acid and base turn litmus from blue to red?
Acids turns Blue litmus to Red. Bases turns Red litmus to Blue.
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 does an acid do to blue litmus?
If a substance changes the color of a blue litmus paper to red, it is acidic blue to red
What colour would litmus turn in acids?
blue litmus paper turns to red when its in contact with acid
How do you observe the changing colour of litmus paper?
Dip the litmus paper into the solution you are testing. Hold it up in the air, holding the dry bit. Look at the bit you dipped. If the solution was an acid, red litmus will stay red, blue litmus will turn red. If the solution was an alkali, red litmus will turn blue, blue litmus will stay red. If the solution was neutral, red litmus will stay red, blue litmus will stay blue.
What colour will it be when a acidic is test with a blue litmus paper?
litmus paper turns blue litmus red when tested on an acid and red litmus blue when tested on a base
