ramdas18: i will use one end for acidic ,one end for basic and remaining middle for water,danyawaad

AdiN05517: if you don't know how to use litmus paper please be quiet. that's not how we can use litmus paper. we need blue litmus for testing acids. but we have been given only one red. so what the person said in this answer is the only correct

As per question, we are given only one red litmus paper and 3 test tubes containing water, base and acid.

To identify each solution, follow the procedure given below :

Take the litmus paper and did it in each test tube until it changes its colour. If it changes the colour from red to Blue, then the solution IN the test tube is base. Separate the test tube containing base.

After this, you will be left with two test tubes : one contains acid and another water.

Dip the blue part of the litmus paper which became blue after dipping into base. If it changes colour back to red, then you have acid in that test tube and if doesn't changes colour, then for sure it will be water and the other test tube will be containg acid.

Acids turn blue litmus red.
Bases turn red litmus blue.
Neutral substances don't change the colour of the litmus paper.

Hope this helps you dear...

HEY MATE!
HERE IS YOUR ANSWER......

→Put the red litmus paper in all the solutions,turn by turn . The soln. which turns red litmus to blue will be a BASIC soln. The blue litmus formed here can now be used to test the acidic soln.
→Put the blue litmus paper (obtained above) in the remaining soln, one by one .The soln which turns the blue litmus to red litmus paper will be the ACIDIC soln.
→The soln which has no effect on any litmus paper will be neutral and hence it will be distilled water.

HOPE THIS HELPS YOU A LOT.......✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
