Shred red cabbage ~ (3/4 of a very small head)
Put the cabbage pieces in a small container ~ ( you can use a Pyrex-4-cup measure, a bowl or even a plastic zipper bag)
Cover the cabbage with very hot water. Let it sleep until the water has cooled. (somewhere between lukewarm and room-temperature)
The purple liquid you've made is your indicator.
Pour it into a container and compost the cabbage.
Now look for substances that may be acids or bases.
Liquids are good, like fruits.
You can also use solids around for baking are good too. (such as baking soda, salt, sugar, cream of tartar...)
Get containers for mixing (such as tea cups, because they are small, shallow and white inside)
Pour the indicator into the tea cups and add an acid or base.
Lemon juice, rice wine vinegar, and apple cider vinegar, turn the cabbage-water indicator into a pink.
Orange juice or fresh oranges (same thing) turn the cabbage-water indicator into an orangish-pinkish color.
Baking soda turns the cabbage-water indicator blue.
Milk (non-fat) turns the cabbage-water indicator turn opaque and milky, yet purple.
An egg white (which won't get into the solution immediately until after a lot of stirring) turns the cabbage-water indicator blue.
Hint:
Bases mostly turn the indicator towards blue-ish colors such as purple, light blue, dark blue, opaque blue...
Acids mostly turn the indicator towards pink-ish colours such as orange-ish pink, floral pink...
(You'll have to keep on testing the cabbage-water indicator in after a day or two to see if the indicator quality persists or degrades.
1)
-Lithium: Lithium got 3 protons, so it atomic number is 3. It is located on the first column of the periodic table, and belonging to the alkali metal. So lithium is a metal. Lithium is highly reactive.
-Neon: It is located on the 18th column of the periodic table, and belong to the noble gases. So Neon is a nonmetal. Neon's reactivity is very low.
-Fluorine: Located on the 17th column of the periodic metal, fluorine is a nonmetal, and belong to the halogen family. Fluorine's reactivity is high.

-Vertical columns of the periodic table are called columns. There is 18 column in the periodic table, and each one represent a chemical family.
-Horizontal rows of the periodic table care called periods. There is 7 periods in the periodic table.
-The number of protons in an atom is that element's atomic number. And since the atom is electrically neutral, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. So if you have the number of electrons, you can still find the atomic number.
-The total of protons and neutrons in an atom is that element's atomic mass. Based on the formula A = Z + N, where A represents the atomic mass, Z the atomic number (number of protons) and N the number of neutrons.
-The elements in group 1 are the most reactive metals. This group is called the Alkali metals. They only have 1 electron in their outer shell which makes them always ready to lose an electron in an ionic bonding.
-The elements in group 17 are the most reactive nonmetals. This group is called the Halogens, with 7 electrons in their outer shell which makes them always ready to win an electron in an ionic bonding.
-The elements in group 18 are the most unreactive elements. This group is called the Noble gases. Their outer shell is always full, so it can't do reactions.
Hope this Helps! :)
False, as oceans can act as carbon sinks along with forests.
