1.	(1) By using moist blue litmus paper classify the following compounds given below as acids and bases Ca(OH)_(2), H_(2)SO_(4), CH_(3)COOH, NaOH, KOH, Mg(OH)_(2), HNO_(3), NH_(4)OH (2) Mention the acidic or basic or neutral nature of solutions by using (a) litmus (b) methyl orange (c) phenolphthalein indicators.
Answer» Solution :(a) `{:("COMPOUNDS","Colour of blue litmus","NATURE of substance"),(Ca(OH)_(2),"No CHANGES","basic"),(H_(2)SO_(4),"CHANGE to red","acidic"),(CH_(3)COOH,"change to red","acidic"),(NaOH,"no change","basic"),(KOH,"no change","basic"),("Mg"(OH)_(2),"no change","basic"),(HNO_(3),"change to red","acidic"),(NH_(4)OH,"no change","basic"):}` ltBrgt (b) `{:("Indicators","Acidic","Basic","NEUTRAL"),("Litmus","Red","Blue","No change in colour"),("Methyl orange","Yellow","Pink","No change"),("Phenolphthalein","Colourless","Pink","No change"):}`
