figure out which one it is based on properties‚ along with the pH. Acids taste sour‚ and bases taste bitter. Using the pH scale‚ you are able to know how strong of an acid or base a liquid is. High concentration of [H+] ions means that the liquid has a low pH. Therefore a liquid with a low concentration of [H+] would have a high pH. A pH of less than 7 represents an acid‚ while a pH above 7 represents a base. A pH of 7 would be neutral. In this lab‚ we used red cabbage juice as a pH indicator to
