Does litmus paper fade after being used?

There are a couple of different things this could mean. I'll try to address them all. Litmus paper is a strip of blotting paper soaked in a solution of an indicator called litmus. Litmus turns blue in the presense of basic solutions, and red in the presence of acidic solutions. If you use a strip of litmus paper to check on the acidity (or alkalinity) of a solution, it may change color. This color will probably slowly fade over time as the litmus reacts with acids or bases in the air, such as vinegar fumes or ammonia, until it reaches the sort of grayish state of neutral litmus. Exposing it to another acid or alkali should bring the color back. Also, if you immerse a strip of litmus paper in a solution, some of the litmus in the paper may leach out. This isn't likely to cause a dramatic fading, but it could be noticeable over time, especially if you keep using a single strip of litmus paper and rinsing it after each use.


What can fade more in the sun magazine or a comic book?

Why printers printout fade sometimes?

Often it is the ink, not the printer. Good brands of printers (HP, Canon, etc.) with genuine brand inks tend to retain their print quality and color. Paper can be a factor, too. Cheap, highly porous paper is not a good surface, and cheap photo paper can fade or discolor due to the coating.
