Question

you are provide with three test cantaining sugar solution , baking soda solution and tamarind solution explain how can you identify the nature of each of these solutions using litmus paper​

Answer 1

Answer:

Add blue litmus solution and then red litmus solution for the test tubes containing sugar solution, baking soda solution, tamarind solution, salt solution. One can observe the colour changes to find the nature of each of them. It is as follows.

Sugar and salt solution is neutral as there is no colour change

Baking soda turns red litmus to blue and it is a basic solution.

Tamarind solution turns blue litmus to red and it is acidic in nature

Hope it helps

Answer 2

When you dip blue or red litmus paper in the sugar solution no change is observed so it is a neutral substance.

When red litmus paper is dipped into baking soda solution, it turns into blue colour so it is a basic in nature.

When blue litmus paper is dipped into tamarind solution paper turns red so it is acidic in nature.
