No totally different, universal indicator is a mixture of chemical which shows the precise p.H of a substance, blue litmus paper reveals whether the substance is acidic or alkaline.
blue
Universal Indicator Blue was created in 1992.
blue because it is a weak alkali
It turns the universal indicator purple or blue.
Litmus paper goes red or blue in acids or universal indicator may measure some level of pH
A base turns the universal indicator blue or u can say a alkali substance.
The gas that turns a universal indicator blue is usually chlorine.
Indicators can be used to determine if a substance is a acid or a base because of the reaction that occurs between the substance and the indicator. This creates a color change in the indicator (depending on which indicator you use). If it is a universal indicator, the substance may change from deep red to violet. If it is a litmus indicator, it will only turn either red or blue.
You could test the pH of the substance with UI (universal indicator) paper, or some other indicator. If the pH is <7 or the paper is red/orange/yellow, then its acidic. If the pH is >7 or the paper is blue/purple, then its alkaline. In-between is neutral (green).
Red cabbage or beetroot juice will do the job.
