An indicator is a substance that changes color in the presence of an acid or alkali. Common indicators include litmus paper (blue for alkaline, red for acidic), phenolphthalein (colorless in acidic solutions, pink in alkaline solutions), and universal indicator solution (multiple colors to indicate pH level).
