    A pH indicator or acid-base indicator is a compound that changes color in solution over a narrow range of pH values. Only a small amount of indicator compound is needed to produce a visible color change.

  3. pH indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PH_indicator

    A pH indicator is a halochromic chemical compound added in small amounts to a solution so the pH (acidity or basicity) of the solution can be determined visually or spectroscopically by changes in absorption and/or emission properties. [1]

    A pH indicator or acid-base indicator is a chemical added in a small amount to a solution that causes a color change depending on the pH. This is a charge of common indicators, an explanation of how they work, and tips for choosing the right one for your needs.

    pH indicators are weak acids that exist as natural dyes and indicate the concentration of H + (H3O+ H 3 O +) ions in a solution via color change. A pH value is determined from the negative logarithm of this concentration and is used to indicate the acidic, basic, or neutral character of the substance you are testing.

    A variety of indicators change color at various pH levels. A properly selected acid-base indicator can be used to visually "indicate" the approximate pH of a sample. An indicator is usually some weak organic acid or base dye that changes colors at definite pH values.

  7. A pH indicator, also known as an acid-base indicator, is a compound that changes colour in solution over a narrow pH range. To produce a visible colour change, only a small amount of indicator compound is required.

    Indicators are substances whose solutions change color due to changes in pH. These are called acid-base indicators. They are usually weak acids or bases, but their conjugate base or acid forms have different colors due to differences in their absorption spectra.

  9. pH - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PH

    pH can be measured using indicators, which change color depending on the pH of the solution they are in. By comparing the color of a test solution to a standard color chart, the pH can be estimated to the nearest whole number. For more precise measurements, the color can be measured using a colorimeter or spectrophotometer.

    PH, quantitative measure of the acidity or basicity of aqueous or other liquid solutions. The term, widely used in chemistry, biology, and agronomy, translates the values of the concentration of the hydrogen ion into numbers between 0 and 14.
