By following the given steps, one can prepare beetroot indicator:
1. Firstly, take a fresh beetroot and peel it using a knife.
2. Then, cut the beetroot into small pieces so that it can be grinded well in a grinder and make a paste.
3. Add little amount of water in the paste.
4. Filter the paste and use only the juice as an indicator.
These are the steps of preparing a beetroot indicator.
Test with acids and base:
When little amount of prepared beetroot juice is added in a basic or alkaline solution, the solution turns to yellow. But there is no change in colour in acidic substances or solution.
HNO3 : When beetroot juice is added to HNO3, there is no change in colour. Hence, we can confirm that it is acidic in nature.
KOH: The solution of potassium hydroxide changes into yellow colour when small amount of beetroot juice is added to it. Hence, we can confirm that KOH is basic in nature.
