WALT: determine whether a substance is an acidic, basic or neutral.
Today room 6 did a foaming and fizzing experiment. Our indicator was cabbage juice. Today we had 5 cups and 5 substances to try. The substances we tried were bleach, washing powder, citric acid, vinegar and milk. What will happen when you put a substance in the indicator? Will it form or will it stay in place or fizz? It might foam if you add acid and if it doesn't that means that it's a basic.
The indicator changes colour depending on what substance you put in.
If a substance is acidic, it turns hot pink or red. If a substance is neutral, it stays purple. If a substance is basic, it turns blue, green or yellow. Citric acid was the most acidic substance. The most basic substance was bleach.
