On adding a few drops of universal indicator solution to three unknown colourless solutions P, Q, and R taken separately in three test-tubes shown in the diagrams, a student observed the changes in colour as green in solution P, red solution Q and violet in solution R.

The decreasing order of the pH of the three solution is :
(1) P > Q > R | (2) R > P > Q |
(3) Q > P > R | (4) R > Q > P |
Correct answer: (2) R > P > Q
Explanation:
From the above image of universal indicator, as P shows green colour, so it is neutral, Q shows red colour, so it is an acid and R shows violet colour, so it is a base.
So, from the above discussion, we can arrange the given molecules in decreasing order as R > P > Q.
