well i got some (maybe inaccurate) data from a ap chem lab, so...

0-2 is red 3 is peachy 4 is orange 5-7 are yellow 8-9 are greenish yellow 10 is green 11 is blue 12-14 is purple hope this helps, even though it's almost a year too late. M1ss1ontomars2k4 03:01, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] solution

Is it a solution or what? It seems like its a mixture or suspension but it really isn't clear. Also, is it the same stuff that is used in ph paper?

Depends- you can make pH paper with pretty much any indicator. When I made a red cabbage indicator, we also soaked paper in it to make indicator paper. However, universal indicator paper is made from UI. -- Dandelions 13:35, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] poisonous?

Is it poisonous? If you put three drops in a drink then would it poison you? Thanks =)
