Technical
The method you choose for measuring pH pH measurements depends is largely determined by the accuracy you need. The choices below go from least to most.

 

  • Litmus test papers give qualitative results; i.e. yes or no, acid or alkaline.
  • pH test strips are semi-quantitative. i.e. they tell you how much but with some uncertainty.
  • A pH meter is quantitative with some error.
  • Titration is quantitative and most accurate but is time consuming & can be expensive if done in a certified lab.

 

Instructions/Safety

There are no specific hazards associated with the pH test strips or litmus papers themselves. However, caution is advised with handling the acidic and alkaline chemicals themselves. Extreme caution is advised in handling strong acids & bases. Gloves and especially goggles are recommended. Chemically resistant aprons should be worn for very strong acids (pH 0,1) & very strong bases (pH 13,14).
