Red Cabbage Indicator Indicators are chemical compounds that can be added to a solution to determine whether it is acidicor alkaline. The indicator will change colour depending on whether an acid or an alkali is added. The colour in red cabbage (it is a pigment called an anthocyanin) makes a very good indicator. Acids and alkalis Acids have a sour taste‚ like vinegar (which contains ethanoic acid) and lemons (which contain citric acid). Alkalis are substances that react with acids and neutralise

The Cabbage Indicator Experiment My hypothesis for this experiment is if I put an acid or a base in to a neutral then it will change colors. My hypothesis was correct in assuming that it would change colors with different substances or mixtures. If I put an acid or a base in to a neutral then it will change colors. The red cabbage indicator did change colors. Greens for bases and reds and pinks for acids. An alternative hypothesis for this could be “If the red cabbage indicator is purple then adding

Red Cabbage Indicator Aim – To create a pH indicator out of a red cabbage solution and to construct a basic pH scale to determine the pH of unknown solutions. Materials - • red cabbage leaves • 250 mL beaker • hotplate or Bunsen burner‚ tripod‚ gauze mat and bench mat • 10 test-tubes – equal size • test-tube rack Methods - Part A: Making the indicator 1. Tear up one or two red cabbage leaves‚ and place them in the beaker with enough water so that the cabbage is just covered. 2. Heat the beaker

Red Cabbage Indicator Experiment Aim: The aim of our investigation was to identify and understand how different chemicals (Acids‚ alkalis and neutral) react and experience a change in colour due of this. Introduction: The red cabbage indicator shows how a usual household product such as red cabbage can make a suitable indicator and be able find out if a chemical is either and acid‚ alkali or neutral. Acids are a chemical that reacts with an alkali neutralising it producing water

pH indicators‚ in chemistry‚ are usually a weak acid or base that are naturally occurring in various plants and flowers and can act as dyes. Some examples of indicators are Litmus (Comes from a plant species called a lichen)‚ Phenolphthalein‚ Thymol blue‚ Bromocresol green and Universal indicator. All these indicators have a certain turning point in color once a certain concentration equilibrium of Hydrogen cations in reached (H +) or a certain concentration equilibrium of H3O+(Also OH - using Arrhenius

Background An indicator is a halochromic chemical compound that is added to a solution to determine its pH. It is a chemical detector for hydronium ions. The indicator changes colour to show the pH of the solution. Some indicates are not very precise and only tell us whether the solution is acidic or basic. When the indicator is added to the solution‚ they bind to hydrogen or hydroxide ions. The different electron configurations of the bound indicator cause the indicator ’s colour to change.

identify the acidity or alkalinity of solutions using cabbage? II. TITLE The Mercurial Cabbage III. RATIONALE We searched on the internet and came across this piece. It seemed like a cool experiment at a glance but as we read through we found it helpful. We decided to add this on our list of proposals. We were also curious and wanted to know the acidity and alkalinity of certain liquids since this is like an acidity or alkalinity indicator. This study can help many people‚ the ones that need

Will Godfrey Chemistry Miss. Morrison May 21‚ 2000 Natural Indicators Each year millions of tourists travel to the woods of New England‚ upstate New York‚ Wisconsin‚ and Canada to witness the appearance of brilliant autumn colors. Sugar maples‚ red oaks‚ sumac‚ birch and other trees and shrubs turn from green to bright red‚ orange‚ and yellow. The short‚ cool days of autumn bring an end to the production of chlorophyll (the green light-gathering pigment). As chlorophyll gradually breaks
