  • A pH indicator is a halochromic chemical that may be added to a solution in very small amounts to visually measure the pH. (acidity or basicity).
  • As a result, under the Arrhenius model, a pH indicator is a chemical detector for hydrogen ions (H+) or hydronium ions (H3O+).
  • The indicator changes the colour of the solution based on the pH in most cases.
  • Other physical attributes can be changed by indicators; olfactory indicators, for example, can vary their odour.
  • A neutral solution with a pH of 7.0 at 25°C is considered neutral (standard laboratory conditions).
  • Acidic solutions have a pH of less than 7.0, whereas basic solutions have a pH of greater than 7.0. (alkaline).
  • pH indicators are widely used in biology and analytical chemistry since most naturally occurring organic substances are weak protolytes, carboxylic acids, and amines.
