Answer:
The acid solution and the basic solution is determined by using the litmus paper or pH paper. The blue litmus paper is used to detect acidic solutions and the red litmus paper is used to detect the basic solution.
If the pH value is lower than 7, then the solution is considered as an acidic solution. When the pH is greater than 7, then the solution is the basic solution. When the pH is 7, then the solution is a neutral solution.
For example, if we dip blue litmus paper into pineapple juice, the blue litmus paper will turn red. This proves that pineapple juice is acidic in nature.
