0 PART 2 Topic Purpose : Universal indicator experiment (acid and base) : To determine the acidity and alkalinity of the products that we used in our life daily. Theory : Universal indicator used to determine the acidic and alkalinity of the products by observe the colour change of indicator. Universal indicator solution or paper, is prepared from mixing several indicators to give a variety of colours to match the pH. It is a very handy indicator for showing whether the solution is very weakly/strongly acidic (pH <7) or alkaline (pH >7) or neutral (pH = 7) and gives the pH to the nearest pH unit. Acids are substances which produce hydrogen ions in solution. Bases are substances which produce hydroxide ions in solution. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14. Substances with a pH between 0 and less than 7 are acids pH and H+ are inversely related lower pH means higher H+. Substances with a pH greater than 7 and up to 14 are bases higher pH means lower H+. Right in the middle, at pH = 7, are neutral substances, for example, pure water. The relationship between H+ and pH is shown in the table below alongside some common examples of acids and bases in everyday life. If the blue Litmus paper turns red the red is unaffected then the substance is acidic. If the red Litmus paper turns blue the blue is unaffected then the substance is alkaline.If neither red nor the blue paper changes colour, the substance is neutral.

Apparatus and materials: I. II. III. IV. V. VI. VII. VIII. IX. X. XI. XII. XIII. XIV. XV. XVI. Eye protection White tile Dropper Universal indicator pH scale Blue and red litmus paper Softlan Toothpaste Facial wash Soy sauce Nail remover Body lotion Shampoo Dish wash Full cream milk Detergent

Procedure : 1) The samples of each and every products were placed on the white tile. 2) The red litmus paper was immersed into the all the samples to be tested. Thus , this method was repeated by using blue litmus paper. 3) The colour changes of the samples was observed by using universal indicator and by refering pH scale . 4) All the observation were recorded and plotted as a table. The pieces of litmus paper were disposed in a waste bin.

1)Toothpaste

pH scale is 10.0 red litmus paper turns into blue.

Those bacteria prefer a neutral to slightly acidic environment, exactly the conditions of your unbrushed mouth.

Alkali

Toothpastes are ideal as temporary relief of skin burns because too alkaline.

It can preserve the nature moisture of the skin because it has soapy effect because of strong alkali.

5)Facial wash

pH scale is 10.0 Red litmus paper turns into blue.

This cleanser have high levels of PH can last longer on our skin can cause irritation and skin problems.

Alkali

It is important to try to pick a cleanser that is about 5.5.

This will help maintain the skins acidity and keep everything balanced.
