Question

You are provided with four test tubes containing sugar solution, baking soda solution, tamarind solution, salt solution. Write down an activity to find the nature (acidic/basic/neutral) of each solution

Answer 1

Explanation:

By tasting the solution present in test tube, we can identify the nature (acidic/basic/neutral) of each solution.

Sugar solution: The taste of sugar solution will be sweet. Its taste is not sour or bitter. So, it comes in the category of neutral solution.

Baking soda solution: The taste of baking soda solution will be bitter. So, it comes in the category of basic solution.

Tamarind solution: The taste of tamarind solution will be sour. So, it comes in the category of acidic solution.

Salt solution: The taste of salt solution will be salty. Its taste is not sour or bitter. So, it comes in the category of neutral solution.
