What litmus paper would you use to test for an acid and what is the color change?
Blue litmus paper would be used and if the chemical is an acid the litmus paper would turn red.
What kind of litmus paper do you use if you have an acid?
Blue litmus turned into red by acids.So you have to blue litmus.
Why do you test with litmus paper?
The main use of litmus is to test whether a solution is acidic or alkaline. Wet litmus paper can also be used to test water-soluble gases; the gas dissolves in the water and the resulting solution colors the litmus paper. For instance, ammonia gas, which is alkaline, colors the red litmus paper blue. Chemical reactions other than acid-base reaction can also cause a color-change to litmus paper. For instance, chlorine gas turns blue litmus paper white - the litmus paper is bleached.[5] This reaction is irreversible and therefore the litmus is not acting as an indicator in this situation
How can you test for an acid and an alkali?
You would have to look at the nurk of the base and the whapple of the acid and i it is an xx and yy it would distinguish because then it dismanages it but otherwise if it is xy yx then it physicaly can't distinguish experimentally without tasting it.
3 ways to test for acids?
The simplest way is to use litmus papers. Acids turn blue litmus paper red; alkalis turn red litmus paper blue. Other ways include the use of indicators such as universal indicator or methyl orange.
What is a litmus paper and how to use it?
A litmus paper is a indicator that is used to test for acids or bases
What is the use of a litmus paper?
litmus paper is genrally used to verify whether a substance is acid or base
What litmus paper would you use to test for an acid and what is the color change?

What kind of litmus paper do you use if you have an acid?
Blue litmus turned into red by acids.So you have to blue litmus.
Why is it important to use blue and red litmus paper to determine pH?
Because if you only use red litmus paper and the solution you tested kept the paper red, you would think that the solution would also make the blue litmus paper turn red too. But what if the solution was neutral? Then the blue litmus paper would stayblue instead of turn red. Thats why you need to use both blue and red litmus paper.
When you test pH you use pH paper what is it called?
Litmus paper
What substance is used to determine the presence of an acid or base?
by using an indicator like litmus paper!!!
How can you use the litmus paper to develop a pH scale?
After studying the color of litmus at different pH.
What would a scientist use to test the pH of a substance?
Without an advanced technical method they use pH paper for quick answer. A more accurate method is to use a pH meter.
What cannot use for find pH of solution 1.ph paper 2.litmus paper?
pH papers are used to find pH of solutions, not litmus paper.
