Colorful Chemistry of Acids and Bases



Test the acidity of household products using something you can find in the supermarket: red cabbage.

Want to try this experiment, but can’t find red cabbage? Find a whole list of acid/base indicators here: http://bit.ly/M8bzwG

    If it hasn't been said before: Please dispose of the bleach test separately from the other solutions. Dispose in a sink, flush with excess water, wait a while, then flush with more water before disposing of the other solutions. Bleach and other household chemicals can make dangerous gases when combined. It's unlikely the concentrations will be high enough to be an issue, but waste a few gallons of water just to be on the safe side.

    This is perfect for my intro lesson for Acids and Bases! You even do the experiment from the book, so that was very helpful! Thank you!
