Correct Answer: purple


Solution : The correct option is purple.

When the litmus solution is neither acidic nor basic, its colour is purple. Litmus is a natural dye that turns red in acidic conditions and blue in basic solutions. In a neutral solution, it retains its original purple hue. Litmus solution is purple in its neutral state because litmus is a natural dye extracted from lichens.
