CHAPTER IV

RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS

This chapter represents the results of the experimental procedures used in the

production of acid base indicator from the papaya leaf extract and the analysis and

interpretation of the data gathered. The pHs of the common household substances were

taken using a pH meter before testing the extract. Two trials were conducted using the

acid base indicator from the papaya leaf extract. Color change was then determined after

getting the pHs of the common household substances by adding a few drops of the

papaya leaf extract to the spotplate.

The color of the papaya leaf extract is green.

The test conducted on the acid base indicator from the papaya leaf yielded the

following results:

Adding the Extract.

The common household substances’ pH was measured using a pH meter before

the extract was tested on them, and their classification is based on the pH. After

measuring the pH,
