in neutral solutions ph paper turns to blue!
A moist litmus paper does not change its colour in neutral solutions.
No change occur.
This color depends on the pH of the solution.
Blue litmus paper stays blue in a neutral solution. It turns red only when in an acidic solution. Similarly, red litmus paper would stay red in a neutral solution and turn blue in an alkaline solution. Added: acidic: pH below 5.5 it turns (stays) red alkaline: pH above 8.0 it turns (stays) blue neutral, in between 5.5 and 8.0: its color is purple, between 'red and blue' or 'blue and red' A much better indicator paper is universal indicator paper. It is yellow and can tell you the exact pH of the solution it is dipped in, going yellow to red in acidic conditions, blue to purple in alkaline conditions and green in neutral conditions. The exact colour depends on the pH.
The green color on litmus paper with tap water typically indicates a neutral pH level. The tap water may have a pH close to 7, resulting in the green color change. This means the water is neither acidic nor basic.
im thinking it would turn red:)
If the red litmus paper stays red, then the object tested may be either an acid or a neutral substance. The substance must be tested on blue litmus paper. if the blue paper stays blue, then it is neutral. If it turns red, then it is an acid.
red turns red, blue turns blue, because it's neutral
in neutral conditions there is no change in colour of litmus....
Red litmus paper will stay red in the presence of an ester. Litmus paper changes color in acidic or basic solutions, not in the presence of esters.
red, acid is mainly red and alkali is blue/purple neutral is green and it all dpends on the ph of the substance
There are different types of Litmus paper and so the exact color may differ for each of these types. Also, water itself is neutral when pure but most tap water is slightly basic so it depends on what you use. -- Tap water will not cause any colour change when tested with litmus paper. Blue litmus paper remains blue, the same goes for red litmus paper. Although the above statement says that tap water is slightly basic, the pH is still close to neutral and will not be significant enough to cause a colour change for the litmus paper.
