Part II: Indicator Tests (The indicators are universal indicator, phenol red, and bromothymol blue)
Use 5 drops of each solution on your white or clear reaction plate and add 2 drops of each indicator to each of
those 5 solutions. Test each solution with the indicators and construct your own data table. Be sure to rinse
the spot plates with DI water.
Analysis
1) Draw conclusions about the range of pH you believe would be valid for each of the indicators you tested.
2) Which of the above tests do you believe is the best test for an acid, base or neutral substance? Support your
answer with data (consider this the conclusion of this lab)!
