How can you use a red cabbage solution to determine the ph of a solution

(PH color chart at the bottom)

Chop the cabbage into small pieces until you have about 2 cups of chopped cabbage. Place the cabbage in a large beaker or other glass container and add boiling water to cover the cabbage. Allow at least 10 minutes for the color to leach out of the cabbage. Alternatively, you can place about 2 cups of cabbage in a blender, cover it with boiling water, and blend it.

Filter out the plant material to obtain a red-purple-bluish colored liquid. This liquid is at about pH 7. The exact color you get depends on the pH of the water.

Pour about 50–100 mL of your red cabbage indicator into each 250 mL beaker.

Add various household solutions to your indicator until it changes color. Use separate containers for each household solution—you don't want to mix chemicals that don't go well together.
