Litmus solution is basically a purple dye.
EXPLANATION:
This solution is used to differentiate between acids and bases. When acid is added to litmus solution, it changes to red and when base is added, it changes to blue.
Litmus solution is extracted from lichens. Lichens are plants belonging to the Thallophyta group. The process of obtaining litmus solution needs the crushing and grinding of lichens. These dyes are then added to neutral water to get the required litmus solution.
