What effect does a base have on red litmus paper? 

Bases turn red litmus paper blue. This color change is a classic indicator of the presence of a base. When a base is applied on red litmus paper, it reacts with the indicator dye, causing the molecules to gain electrons and change shape. This alteration causes the litmus paper to become blue, indicating the presence of a base.
