Answer:
by adding turmeric in acid it remains yellow only
but by adding turmeric in base it change into red colour.
for explanation and diagram you can see experiment video
Answer:
Turmeric is a natural pH indicator. It changes colour in the presence of acids and bases. In the presence of acids, turmeric remains yellow, but in the presence of alkaline substances (bases), it turns red. It is ideal to use it for doing experiments with vinegar or citric acid and baking soda.
Explanation:
pH and chemical reaction – A simple summary
The pH is the measure of how acidic or basic (alkaline) a substance is. It is represented in a numerical range from 0 to 14, with seven being neutral. The more acidic the material, the closer it is to 0, the more basic, the closer it is to 14. The pH number indicates the presence or absence of hydrogen ions. Acids have hydrogen ions (H+), and bases have hydroxide ions (OH-). The higher the concentration of these ions, the more acidic or basic the substance.
When an acid and base come in contact with one another, a chemical reaction occurs. Acids and bases neutralize one another by breaking apart and forming into new substances. The reaction always results in the creation of water (H2O) and a salt.
