Key Points

  • The aim is to evaluate natural flower extracts as indicators for acid-base titrations, replacing synthetic alternatives.
  • Macerating flowers to extract color pigments.
  • Measuring the pigment concentration using a UV-visible spectrophotometer.
  • Testing for color changes at different pH levels.
  • Natural indicators showed distinct color shifts at varying pH levels.
  • Hibiscus, Rose, and Butterfly pea extracts exhibited effective color changes suitable for titration.

Abstract

Chemicals that serve as indicators are crucial. Therefore, synthetic indicators have traditionally been the best choice for all kinds of acid-base titration. Because they exhibit a distinct color shift at pH intervals in all kinds of titrations. However, an endeavor must be made to replace synthetic indication with natural indicator due to some drawbacks, such as high cost, availability challenges, lengthy and complicated synthesis, toxic waste products, and environmental concerns. Hibiscus, Rose, and Butterfly pea anthocyanin color pigment were made by macerating flowers. The quantitative amount of color pigment was measured using a UV-visible spectrophotometer.
