define indicator and write their effects on acid and bases

An acid-base indicator is either a weak acid or weak base that exhibits a color change as the concentration of hydrogen (H+) or hydroxide (OH-) ions changes in an aqueous solution.
Acid-base indicators are most often used in a titration to identify the endpoint of an acid-base reaction. They are also used to gauge pH values and for interesting color-change science demonstrations.
Also Known As: pH indicator
Perhaps the best known pH indicator is litmus. Thymol Blue, Phenol Red and Methyl Orange are all common acid-base indicators. Red cabbage can also be used as an acid-base indicator.

The indicator is the one used to find whether the given chemical is acid or base.
