The acid-base indicator will change color during this experiment when enough base (antacid) has been added to the acid to neutralize it (“Antacids/medicines”). Color change depends on the potency of the base (“Antacids/medicines“). Without the indicator, it would not be known when too much or too little base is added (“Antacids/medicines”). Total neutralization is achieved by putting together equivalent weights of acid and base (Fleishman). In a real life situation neutralization of acid is important so that the pain of heartburn is relieved (Knapp). Many people in
