Red Cabbage Indicator Science

Two days ago (21/8/18) in Science, me and Jayden made a Red Cabbage Acid Indicator, we used Test tubes, Red Cabbage, Lemonade, Water, Floor cleaner, Sparkling Water, Toilet Cleaner, Base.
Our aim was to tell the levels of pH with a Red Cabbage Acid Indicator using house hold liquids.

So What we did was put red cabbage in a beaker up to 100 ml and then put water to 150 ml then turned the bunsen burner on and also put the beaker on a tripod over the bunsen burner and let the liquid turn purple we turned the heat of and poured the liquid into a flask
and then added the liquid into 6 test tubes and then we added the household liquids and named all the flasks.

1st Water, 2nd Floor Cleaner, 3rd Sparkling Water, 4th Lemonade 5th Toilet Cleaner, 6th Base.

Water is blue 8, Floor Cleaner is Blue 8, Sparkling Water is Purple 4, Lemonade Violet 6, Toilet Cleaner Red 2, Base Purple 4.

And a indicator is something that gives information about heat and other things

  1. Hi Vin, Tobey here.
    This is really cool and I can see that you enjoyed it a lot. I like how you added how to do the experiment so that we can do it at home.
    Next time you could tell us about why the color changed.
    BYE!

  2. Hey Vin,Tamani Here again
    I am very impressed by how you found out how to change the colour using base and acid Maybe next time you could show us more of what you did by adding more photos or do 2 different photos.
    Bye For Now
