Key Properties
Universal Indicator solution pH 4-11 is a versatile and ready-to-use liquid pH indicator that provides a visual representation of pH levels across a broad range from 4 to 11. This solution is particularly useful in educational settings and general chemistry laboratories, where accurate pH measurement is essential. The indicator is formulated as a mixture of various pH-sensitive dyes, which change color depending on the acidity or alkalinity of the solution being tested. The accompanying color chart allows for easy interpretation of results, making it an invaluable tool for students and professionals alike.
Also known as pH Indicator Solution, Universal pH Indicator.

The Universal Indicator solution is a multi-colored liquid with a density of approximately 0.89 g/mL. It exhibits a range of colors that correspond to different pH levels, facilitating quick and easy visual assessment. The solution is typically clear and free from particulates, ensuring accurate readings. It is important to note that the solution is methanol-based, which contributes to its flammability and toxicity. The boiling point of methanol is 64.7 °C, and it has a flash point of 11.1 °C, indicating that the solution should be handled with care and stored away from heat sources.
