What is the pH value of Sugar? and how can we measure the pH value of Sugar using "TURMERIC" indicator?
Answers
Answer:
Turmeric indicator is yellow in colour.
→ Take a few drops from each solution and test it with a turmeric solution. If the solution turns pink then the solution is basic i.e., sodium hydroxide. Mark the beaker(containing solution) as base.
→ Take a test tube and add a few drops of base solution and the second solution. Check if the test tube becomes warm and then add turmeric solution to it. If the colour does not change, it means the solution is acidic i.e., hydrochloric acid. The test tube becomes warm because of the neutralization effect.
→ If the test tube of the above solution does not become warm and it does show pink colour when turmeric solution is added, the second solution is neutral.

Answer:
Sugar is a pH-neutral substance, meaning that its pH value is usually more or less than 7, but close. However, raw and unprocessed sugar is slightly basic in nature, while white sugar and brown sugar are both slightly acidic.Turmeric is yellow in acidic and neutral solution and turns bright red in basic solution. ... The, we will add the base in the other two solutions i.e. hydrochloric acid and the sugar solution. The turmeric in the sugar solution will turn red upon addition of sodium hydroxide as the solution will turn basic.
