• A. True
• B. False
• C. the solution remains colourless.
• D. the solution turns red.

Answer 1

Answer: (B), (D)

The correct options are
B

False

D the solution turns red.

Red cabbage extract is a purple coloured natural indicator. It turns red in acidic solution and green in basic solution.
Lime juice is sour in taste because it contains citric acid in it. So, when red cabbage extract is added to lime juice, the colour of the solution changes from purple to red.
