Turmeric Solution as acid base indicator

In this activity, we combine science and art! We are making a turmeric pH indicator for acids & bases and drawing a little animation. It's a fun and easy way to learn how lemon juice and washing powder react with turmeric and change its colour. It is an excellent start to learn about the pH scale and its relation to acids and bases. #scienceexperiments #homeschool #dadlife #scienceiscool #chemistry #chemistryisfun #chemistryexperiments | TheDadLab

Turmeric serves as a pH indicator. When it comes into contact with bases like baking soda, it changes to a deep red hue. This red handprint can change colour to yellow if acids (like lemon juice) are introduced. What a bewitching way to understand pH indicators in action!#TheDadLab #kidsscience #halloweenscience #scienceisfun #halloweenmagic | TheDadLab
