Solution

Effect of Ethanol on Litmus paper:

  • Ethanol / Ethyl alcohol(C2H5OH) solution will not turn blue litmus paper to red.
  • Ethanol solution is neutral(neither acts as an acid or a base) in nature and it does not bring any change in the colour of litmus whether it is blue or red.

Therefore, Ethanol solution will not turn blue litmus paper to red.
