An acid-base indicator is a substance that changes color as the pH of the solution changes. Indicators work because they are weak acids which when in solution, exist in equilibrium with their ...

Is it an acid, base, or neutral? Make your own acid-base indicator from red cabbage, then test various household substances. Acids and bases are classes of materials that have different properties.

Students will be able to explain that if two substances cause turn a pH indicator different colors, they must be different substances. Students will be able to explain that the color that a substance ...

A well-established technique, acid-base titration is an analytical method used to determine the concentration of an unknown acid or base. In practice, it involves adding a solution of known strength ...

Experiment #1 – Is it an acid, base or neither? The pH scale (which ranges from 0 to 14) gives us the ability to understand how acidic (pH lower than 7) or basic (pH higher than 7) an item is. We can ...
