There are two types of Litmus Paper: Red and Blue. Red Litmus Paper turns blue when it is dipped in a solution of pH 8.3 or more (stronger alkalis), and Blue Litmus Paper turns red when dipped in a solution of pH 4.5 or less (stronger acids)
Phenol Red
Phenol Red turns yellow when it is dipped in a solution of pH 6.6 or less (stronger acids), and turns fuschia when dipped in a solution of pH 8.0 or more (stronger alkali)
