Universal indicator is mostly preferred over litmus indicator why?
Universal indicator covers a wider pH range compared to litmus indicator, which only detects acidic or basic conditions. Universal indicator provides a more precise indication of the pH level of a solution by producing a range of colors across the pH scale.
Why is universal indicator often more useful than litmus indicator?
Universal indicator can show a wider range of pH levels compared to litmus indicator, which can only indicate acidic or basic solutions. Universal indicator provides a full spectrum of colors corresponding to different pH values, making it more precise and versatile for measuring pH levels in various solutions.
Why is a universal indicator better than a litmus?
coz universal indicator tells you whether its a strong or weak acid or alkali but litmus paper only tells you whether the sunstance is acid (red) or alkali (blue)
What is an indicator used to detect an acid or base?
An indicator used to detect an acid or base is a substance that changes color in the presence of acids or bases. Examples of indicators include litmus paper, phenolphthalein, and universal indicator solution.
How can hydrochloric acid turn red in color?
When hydrochloric acid reacts with iron, it forms iron(III) chloride, which appears red in color. This happens because of the oxidation state change in the iron ions during the reaction, leading to the red coloration.

A well known indicator?
Phenolphthalein Litmus Red Litmus Blue Universal Indicator -> Most Common Methyl Orange :)
What does an universal indicator tell you about an acid that litmus doesn't?
Universal indicator gives you an indication of the pH of the acid (i.e its 'strength') While both sulfuric acid and vinegar would turn litmus paper red, sulfuric acid would turn universal indicator red, pH of 1, while vinegar would turn it yellow-orange, pH of 4.
How are acids and bases tested?
universal indicator or litmus paper
How can you test for an alkaline or acid?
With a universal indicator or with litmus paper.
Is universal indicator paper the same as blue litmus paper?
No totally different, universal indicator is a mixture of chemical which shows the precise p.H of a substance, blue litmus paper reveals whether the substance is acidic or alkaline.
How do you test the acidity of objects?
Litmus paper or universal indicator are the best ways.
How can you tell if food contains acids?
Use universal indicator or litmus paper
What is the pH value of toilet cleaing acid?
Just test it with universal litmus paper or universal indicator(liquid)
What color does the indicator paper turn if the substance is a strong acid?
If you are testing with Universal Indicator or the Litmus Test it will turn red.
What do you see when chlorine is put with litmus or universal indicator paper?
When chlorine gas reacts with litmus paper, it will turn red litmus paper white and then dissolve it. When chlorine gas reacts with universal indicator paper, it will change the color to yellow due to its acidic nature.
