It helps in indicating whether a substance is acidic or basic A red litmus paper turns blue in basic solution and turns red in acidic solution A blue litmus paper turns red in acidic solution and turns darker blue in basic solution
Litmus paper can be used to determine if a solution is acidic or basic
If you add red litmus paper and it remains red, then you add blue litmus paper and it remains blue, then the the solution is neutral. Kamal
Acidic is the answer
The litmus papers are used for checking the acidic and basic nature of any substance. That's why drop of lemon juice, which is by nature acidic, turns blue litmus into red(as the property of acidic solution is to change the color of blue litmus to red). So soap solution which is by nature basic will turn red litmus into blue (as the property of basic solution is to change the color of red litmus to blue).
The solution is alkaline, because litmus paper remains blue in alkaline solutions and turns red in acidic solutions.

Yes, because litmus paper remains blue in alkaline solutions and turns red in acidic solutions.
take blue litmus paper put it in the solution if it turns red its acidic if it remains blue its either basic or neutral to test if its basic put red litmus paper in the solution if it turns blue then its basic if it remains red then its neutral . it is only applicable in solutions.
Red, because litmus paper remains blue in alkaline solutions and turns red in acidic solutions.
Litmus paper turns red if the solution is acidic and blue if the solution is basic. Vinegar is an acidic solution (due to acetic acid), and will turn the litmus paper red.
it is litmus not lithmus . it is a natural indicator . it is a strip of paper either red or blue in colour . it is used whether a solution is acidic or basic in nature. a basic solution turns red litmus to blue and an acidic solution turns blue litmus into red
litmus paper
An acid solution turns blue litmus red.
