What will happen if you mix an indicator with another indicator?

Solution

The mixture of indicators should still work because most indicators are weak acids, and the presence of other weak acids does not interfere with any given weak acid. If you had an indicator that happened to be a weak base, you would likely have a problem, but that is not the case for your solution.
