What methanol litmus paper test color?

Methanol is a neutral substance and typically does not change the color of litmus paper. Litmus paper changes color in the presence of acidic or alkaline substances.


Does the litmus paper test determine if an aqueous solution is basic?

Yes, the litmus paper test can determine if an aqueous solution is basic. If the litmus paper turns blue, it indicates that the solution is basic. If it remains red, the solution is acidic.


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

What is the process by which ammonia gas is produce at the bottom of the test tube comes in contact with the litmus paper at the mouth of the test tube?

When ammonia gas is produced at the bottom of the test tube and comes in contact with the litmus paper at the mouth of the test tube, it reacts with the water on the litmus paper to form ammonium hydroxide. This reaction changes the color of the litmus paper from red to blue, indicating the presence of ammonia gas. The ammonia gas diffuses up the test tube to reach the litmus paper due to differences in concentration.
