If soda water or any indicator which will change into the colour of red?
Methyl Orange is red in an acidic solution.
How can you determine total acidity?
By titration with alkaline on methyl-red indicator (pH<6)
When you add an acid to an alkali it changes to a neutral which colour change would this show with an indicator?
It depends on the indicator and there are quite a few. Methyl Red, Methyl orange and Phenolphthalein are 3 such acid-base indicators. If phenolphthalein is used as the indicator and added to the base it would immediately turn red/pink. As acid is titrated in, the red/pink will disappear and go colorless.
What does yellow indicate on the ph scale?
It depends on what indicator you are using. Yellow with the bromothymol blue indicator is acidic, yellow with the methyl orange indicator is basic, yellow with the phenol red indicator is acidic and yellow with the universal indicator is acidic.
What color would methyl orange be in milk of magnesia?

What colour indicator do you use for hydrochloric acid and vinegar?

A well known indicator?
Phenolphthalein Litmus Red Litmus Blue Universal Indicator -> Most Common Methyl Orange :)

Methyl Orange indicator is made by dissolving .01 g of the powder into 100 ml of DI water. This gives and indicator for a pH range of 3.2-4.4 and goes from Red to Yellow.
How can you determine total acidity?
By titration with alkaline on methyl-red indicator (pH<6)
What effect do alkali's have on methyl orange indicator?
It turns the alkali into a red/yellow colour
Which indicator gives us reddish pink color in acidic solution?
Methyl red and methyl orange show reddish colors in acidic solutions.
