INDICATORS

Hello everyone, welcome back to my blog.

Recently we have been learning about acid and alkali. It was a scarce topic for me but I gave it a go. 

You may be wondering whats a acid, an acid is a substance that can chemically react.

You also may ask yourself whats a alkali. It’s a slippery and soapy thing found in ashes of fire. When blue litmus has acid in it, it becomes red. When you put alkaloid on red litmus it becomes blue. 

The way we used these together to make it look awesome is an indicator. Indicators are substances that change colour when they are added to acidic or alkaline solutions. Litmus, phenolphthalein, and methyl orange are all indicators that are commonly used in the laboratory.

The experiment is when you get multiple liquids and and they are more acid or alkali.

We did tea which changed quite a bit i think the tea is on the right and in the middle is acid or alkali.  

  











And for this one its cranberry juice and the left on was alkali and the one on the right acid and the middle just cranberry juice. 













And this one is curry powder I believe that the acid had no effect but the alkali was quite a change. 













Thanks for reading my blog.
