Final answer:

The color of indicators can change depending on the pH value of a solution. Common acid-base indicators and their colors include: battery acid (colorless), water (colorless), vinegar (colorless to red), soda pop (colorless to blue), shower cleaner (colorless), liquid drain cleaner (colorless to yellow).

Step-by-step explanation:

The color of indicators can change depending on the pH value of a solution. Some common acid-base indicators and their colors are:

  • Battery acid: colorless
  • Water: colorless
  • Vinegar: colorless to red, depending on the concentration of acetic acid
  • Soda pop: colorless to blue, depending on the presence of carbonic acid
  • Shower (ammonia) cleaner: colorless
  • Liquid drain cleaner: colorless to yellow, depending on the concentration of hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid

These colors are approximate and can vary depending on the specific indicator used.

Well the color for battery acid would be purple due to the acidity in the battery acid but to lower the levels add some gypsy stone and it can lower it
