To extract a carrot as an acid-base indicator, first, grate or chop the carrot into small pieces and then blend it with a small amount of water to create a puree. Strain the mixture through a fine sieve or cheesecloth to obtain the liquid extract, which contains natural pigments like beta-carotene. This liquid can be used to test pH by adding it to acidic or basic solutions, where it may change color, indicating the pH level. The color change typically ranges from reddish in acidic conditions to yellow in neutral or alkaline conditions.
To make a carrot acid-base indicator, extract the juice from a carrot by blending or grating it, then filter the juice to remove any solid particles. Add a few drops of the carrot juice to different solutions to observe color changes: acidic solutions will turn the indicator yellow or orange, while basic solutions will turn it purplish-red.
A solution made out of carrot is slightly acidic as it contains vitamins.
An acid base indicator is a chemical substance that has the ability to change color depending on the pH.
Recreation of an indicator using an acid and a base involves mixing a colorless or faintly colored acid-base indicator with an acid to make the solution acidic (and change color) and then adding a base to neutralize the acid and return the indicator to its original color. This process demonstrates the reversible nature of acid-base indicators and how they can be used to visually indicate the presence of acids or bases in a solution.
This indicator changes his color.

The most appropriate indicator for a strong acid/strong base titration is phenolphthalein.
Carrot juice is slightly acidic. Its pH can vary but it typically falls in the range of 6 to 6.5.
It is a substance(chemical or natural) which changes colour in the presence of an acid or base.
For the titration of a strong acid, the indicator typically used is phenolphthalein. Phenolphthalein changes color in the pH range of 8.2 to 10, which is suitable for titrating a strong acid with a strong base to determine the equivalence point.
