The color of litmus turns red from blue when it is introduced to a solution of ferric chloride.

Explanation:

  • Litmus is a substance that is used to identify the acidity or basicity of the solution.
  • They are readily available in two colors namely red and blue and in two forms namely as paper and solutions.
  • The blue litmus remains unchanged in basic solution whereas turns red in the acidic solution.
  • The ferric chloride is the acidic solution as it is formed due to the interaction of weak base iron oxide (Fe_2O_2) and strong acid hydrochloric acid (HCl).
  • As it is an acidic solution, the color of the blue litmus changes to red when the litmus paper is introduced in ferric chloride solution.
