Tasting it and touching it are both potentially dangerous for a start haha. SO DONT DO THOSE ONES.

Litmus paper is a good choice because its colour changes based on the presence of an acid or base.
Phenolphthalein is an acid-base indicator and does a similar thing to litmus.

Litmus paper and phenolphthalein are the right choices

Answer : The correct options are, litmus paper and phenolphthalein.

Explanation :

Acid : It is a substance that has ability of donating proton or hydrogen ion, H^+ .

The properties of an acid are :

Acids are sour in taste.

The texture of an acid solution is sticky.

It changes the color of the litmus paper to red.

Base : It is a substance that has ability of donating hydroxide ion, OH^- .

The properties of an base are :

Base are bitter in taste.

The texture of an base solution is slippery.

It changes the color of the litmus paper to blue.

Indicators : It is a substance that gives the visible sign by the color change of the chemical species like an acid or a base.

Litmus paper : It turns red when it is added to a strong acid, it turns blue or purple when it is added to a strong base and it turns a yellowish-green when it is added to a neutral solution.

Phenolphthalein : It is also used as an indicator in acid–base titrations. It turns colorless in acidic solutions and pink in basic solutions.

Thus, there are two good ways to test whether a solution is an acid or a base which are litmus paper and phenolphthalein.

Answer is: the equilibrium shifts toward the reactants, to the left side of chemical reaction.it is because lead(ii) nitrate dissociates in water: pb(no₃)₂ → pb²⁺(aq) + 2no₃⁻(aq).according to lechatelier's principle, the position of equilibrium moves to counteract thechange (more lead cations, common ion), the position of equilibrium will move so that the concentration ofproducts decrease and concentration of reactants of chemical reaction increase.read more on -

Fertilizer is sold in 100 pound bags labelled with the amount of nitrogen ( n), phosphoric acid ( p2o5), and potash ( k2o) present. the mixture of these nutrients varies from one type of fertilizer to the next. for example, a 100100 pound bag of vigoro ultra turf fertilizer contains 2929 pounds of nitrogen, 33 pounds of phosphoric acid, and 44 pounds of potash. another type of fertilizer, parker's premium starter, has 1818 pounds of nitrogen, 2525 pounds of phosphoric acid, and 66 pounds of potash per 100100 pounds. determine the amount of each type required to yield a mixture containing the 112112 pounds of nitrogen, 8181 pounds of phosphoric acid, and 2626 pounds of potash.
