The colours from yellow to red indicate an acidic solution, colours blue to violet indicate alkali and green colour indicates that a solution is neutral. Wide-range pH test papers with distinct colours for each pH from 1 to 14 are also available.
The Universal Indicator Color Guide shows that Universal Indicator turns red when it is added to a strong acid, it turns purple when it is added to a strong base, and it turns a yellowish-green when it is added to a neutral solution. All acids in the range of 1 to 4 turn the indicator red.
A universal indicator is a pH indicator made of a solution of several compounds that exhibits several smooth colour changes over a wide range of pH values to indicate the acidity or alkalinity of the solution. They are used to indicate the acidity and alkalinity of the solution by colour change.
