When an alkali is added to a test tube containing Universal Indicator, it typically turns the indicator solution a dark green or blue color. This is because Universal Indicator is a mixture of different pH indicators that show a range of colors from red (acidic) to green (neutral) to blue or purple (alkaline). The specific color change observed may vary depending on the concentration and type of alkali used.

What color does Universal indicator turn in diluted hydrochloric acid?

Hydrochloric Acid is known to be a very strong acid. A 0.01 molar solution of HCl has a pH of 2 ( -log(0.01) ) which on the pH scale is very acidic (under 7 is acidic, 7 is neutral, over 7 is basic). On a universal indicator test, HCl would come out as red. A basic solution would be a more blue-green, or green depending on the concentration.This is a color chart for a universal indicator test:http://chem.csusb.edu/images/pH_chart.gif


What does universal indicator test for?

A universal indicator changes color in response to the pH of a liquid. Do determine the pH of the liquid, you need to refer to a color chart that tells you which color indicates which pH.
