Acid-Base Indicator

A substance that changes color in the presence of an acid or a base, indicating whether the solution is acidic or basic.

Turmeric Indicator: Acidic & Basic Colors

Turmeric is a natural indicator. It changes color when exposed to acids or bases. In acidic solutions, it retains its yellow color. In basic solutions, it turns orange-red.

pH Scale

A scale used to measure the acidity or alkalinity of a solution, with 0 being the most acidic and 14 being the most alkaline. A pH of 7 indicates a neutral solution.

Why Turmeric Turns Red in Soap

Turmeric is a natural indicator. It is yellow in color. When it comes in contact with a basic substance, it turns red. This happens because turmeric's chemical structure changes in the presence of a base, causing the color change.

Identifying Liquids with Turmeric

Turmeric can help distinguish between different liquids based on their acidity and alkalinity. Turmeric will remain yellow in acidic solutions, such as hydrochloric acid. It will turn red in basic solutions, like sodium hydroxide. Sugar solutions are neutral and will not change the color of turmeric.

Indicator Color Change

The statement ‘If an indicator changes color with a base, it does not change color with an acid’ is incorrect. An indicator will change color with both acids and bases, but the color change will be different for each type of solution.

Study Notes

Worksheet 3: Turmeric Indicator

  • Acid-base indicator: Turmeric is an acid-base indicator.
  • Turmeric analogy: Turmeric is an indicator, milk of magnesia is a base, baking soda is a base.
  • Turmeric pH determination: You can determine the concentration of acids/bases using a pH scale.
  • Turmeric colour change: Yellow in acid, red/yellow in base.
  • Household item for red pigment: Soap solution/baking soda.

Worksheet 3: Acid-Base Indicator Properties

  • Acid/base colour change: Both acids and bases change the colours of all indicators. However, an indicator only changes colour with one or the other (acid or base), not both.
  • Indicator change colour: Change in colour of an indicator depends on the type of indicator.
  • Turmeric as a natural indicator: Turmeric is a natural indicator, turning orange-red in alkaline solution.

Worksheet 4: China Rose Indicator

  • Natural indicator: China rose petals are a natural indicator for acids and bases.
  • Acidic/basic changes: Turns green in a basic solution, dark pink in acidic conditions and light pink in neutral conditions.
  • Identifying substances: Using China rose indicator, a magenta colour shows a sugar solution, a colourless colour shows lime juice and a green colour shows lime water.

Worksheet 5: pH Value of Acid and Bases

  • Acidity/basicity testing: Fill the table according to observations for different samples regarding pH paper colour and the pH, using pH paper to test the acidity and basicity of substances..

Worksheet 6: Neutralization Reactions

  • Neutralization: The reaction between an acid and a base, forming salt and water.
  • Neutralization reaction observation: When a colourless acid and base solutions are mixed, the resultant solution becomes warm, and no gas bubbles are formed.
  • Neutralization change: The resultant solution is neutral.
  • Acid/base mix observations: When an acid-base is mixed, the substances neutralise each other and are no longer acidic or basic, forming salt and water.

Worksheet 7: Neutralization in Everyday Life

  • Acidity relief: Lime water is a good option for relieving stomach acid.
  • Neutralizing agents: Baking soda (a mild base) is useful to neutralize excess acid in the stomach, providing relief from indigestion.
  • Acidic/basic soil: Adding lime (a base) to acidic soil neutralizes it, which is good for the growth of plants.
  • Acid and base nature of substances: pH value determines the acidity or basicity of substances (pH less than 7 is acid, pH more than 7 is base and pH 7 is neutral)
