Best Answer

Litmus at a pH of 7 (which is nominally what an NaCl solution should have at room temperature) is a kind of purple color, somewhere between the "red" acidic form and the "blue" basic form. As with many indicators, the color change happens over a range rather than at a specific pH; the range for litmus is from around 5 (red) to 8 or so (blue).
