To test the students' new indicators, you could use unknowns of pH 3, 5, 7 and 9 (only 5 and 7 will be in their range) or you could devise your own testing method.
Indicators show a color change over a specific part of this zero to fourteen range and, when used in combination, can narrow the determination of pH to a whole number in this range.
The pH of a solution is a measure of its acidity or basicity with a range from zero (most acidic) to 14 (most basic).
