Answer:

The Red Cabbage Indicator can determine the PH based on what color the solution turns into.

Step-by-step explanation:

Very acidic solutions will turn anthocyanin into a red color. Neutral solutions result in a purplish color. Basic solutions appear in greenish-yellow. Therefore, you can determine the pH of a solution based on the color that it turns the anthocyanin pigments in red cabbage juice.
