Worked practice questions
Phenolphthalein in a sodium hydroxide solution is:
- colourless
- red
- pink
- yellow
Show answer and solution
Correct answer: C. pink
NaOH is a strong base.
Phenolphthalein is colourless in acid and pink in base — so it turns pink.
Onion juice loses its smell in a:
- neutral solution
- basic solution
- acidic solution
- sugar solution
Show answer and solution
Correct answer: B. basic solution
Onion is an olfactory indicator.
Its sharp smell weakens in a basic solution (loss of smell signals base).
