Answer: Phenolphthalein is colourless in nature but turns pink when exposed to alkaline solutions. Whether the chemical is in an acidic or basic media determines its colour.
When the pH level is acidic, the indicator remains colourless throughout, but when the pH level reaches 8.2, it begins to turn pink. The acid-base indicator phenolphthalein is used to determine the pH of a solution.
