A student prepared two solutions: 1 @ (water + cabbage extract) and 1 @ (buffet + cabbage extract). The student adjusted the solutions to pH = 7 but forgot to label each of them so both were indistinguishable. The student decided to test one of the two solutions and split the solution into two beakers: Sol1 and Sol2. The student was really struggling that day and forgot to label the HCL and the NaOH solutions. Continuing with the experiment, the student added SolA into Sol1 and the color turned light red. What is the identity of SolA? What will the color of Sol2 be after SolB is added? What must the initial solution contain?
