Turmeric is a good indicator of acids and bases. It turns red in bases whereas it is yellow in both acids and neutral solutions. When we mix turmeric to the three liquids, sodium hydroxide turns it into red so we conclude that it is a base. Hydrochloric acid and sugar solution keep turmeric in yellow colour. Hydrochloric acid is an acid as already mentioned and sugar solution is neutral.
