Hello everyone welcome back to my blog. Today in Science we did an experiment using Litmus Paper. It's a paper that can detect whether a liquid is an acid or an alkali. This is what we did.
Materials:
1. Red Litmus Paper,
2. Blue Litmus Paper,
3. Sodium Hydroxide,
4. Hydrochloric Acid.
5. Pipette,
6. 4 Test Tubes.
Steps:
1. Rip the litmus paper in half and put half in each test tube.2
2. Add 3 drops of hydrochloric acid to the blue litmus paper in test tube 1.
3. Add 3 drops of hydrochloric acid to the red litmus paper in test tube 2.
4. Add 3 drops of Sodium Hydroxide to the blue litmus paper in test tube 3.
5. Add 3 drops of Sodium Hydroxide to the blue litmus paper in test tube 4.
Conclusion:
The experiment was amazing and I did not expect what to happen. If you want to know what happens you should try it yourself.
I do not have the litmus papers at home, so can not do them. Your experiments sound like fun, Dylan.
