Objective
The goal of this project is to make your own pH indicator paper, and use it to measure the acidity and alkanity of various solutions from around your house.
Introduction
Acidity and alkalinity are measured with a logarithmic scale called pH. Here’s why: A strongly acidic solution can have one hundred million million (100,000,000,000,000) times more [...]
