Yes you can use methyl red, methyl orange, bromophenol blue and other indicators instead of phenolphthalein in the acid-base titration of NaOH.

In HCl and NaOH titration which indicator is used?

Phenolphthalein indicates red for acids and blue for bases.


What indicator can you choose for the titration of oxalic acid with sodium hydroxide?

Phenolphthalein, because NaOH is a strong base.


What is the colour change in the titration of NaOH and C2H2O4 if using phenolphthalein as an indicator?

Adding NaOH-sol'n to oxalic acid, C2H2O4, the colour (from colorless) has to become purple-blue at pH 8 to 10.

phenolphthalein.


Which indicator is used in titration of naoh and h2so4?

Methyl orange


Why methyl orange is used instead of phenolphthalein in hcl and naoh titration?

This is so since the pH at the end point of Phenolphthalein is 9.1 and methyl orange is 3.7. For a strong acid strong base titration which the end point is between 3-11 phenolphthalein is used


What chemical reaction between the phenolphthalein and NaOH?

Phenolphthalein turns pink as NaOH is a strong alkali


Which indicator is used for titration of C2H2O4 with NaOH?

Phenolphtalein change colorless at pH < 8 to purple blue at pH > 8 to 10


Why you use phenolphthalein as a indicator in titration of NaOH with HCL?

Phenolphthalein is normally used for this reaction as it accurately displays the end point of the reaction, turning colorless as soon as it reaches the end point of the reaction. If carrying out this reaction, be careful, as the change is usually quite sudden. The color exhibited should be pink (or "fuchsia") at the beginning of the reaction. As it progresses, it should become lighter in color, until it becomes colorless suddenly.


Why is thymol blue used as the indicator for titration of acetic acid and naoh?

An indicator that changes its colour around pH value 5 should be used in this titration. Alternatively, instead of Thymol Blue, Methyl Orange or Methyl Red may be used.
