The government does not want people to use methyl and it is illegal.
Methyl orange is red under a pH=3,1 and yellow over a pH=4,4; methyl orange is useful for the titrimetric determination of acids concentration.
Orange dye is made by combining a yellow dye and a red dye.
Methyl orange is a synthetic azo dye that appears as an orange-red powder in its solid form. In solution, it exhibits a bright orange color at acidic pH levels and transitions to a yellow color in alkaline conditions. The dye is soluble in water, and its color change occurs around a pH of 3.1 to 4.4, making it useful as a pH indicator.
Methyl orange is typically available in two forms, mono-sodium salt and mono-ammonium salt. The mono-sodium salt form of methyl orange is more soluble in water compared to the mono-ammonium salt form.
Methyl orange is soluble in HOT water, but why is it solube in water no informations were found.A simple answer would be: " If it is soluble in water is because it has properties which allows it to be soluble in water"
Screened Methyl orange separates when it comes in contact with water on the filter paper because it is an impure substance and impure substances are made of 2 or more components......so therefore it separates the blue colou ration from the orange colouration
the color of methyl orange in an acidic medium is orange
Methyl orange is a polar compound.
Screened methyl orange is a pH indicator consisting of a solution of methyl orange and xylene cyanol in ethanol. It is red in very acidic solution, grey in neutral solution, and green in very alkaline solution.
Methyl orange is commonly used as an indicator in paper chromatography. By placing a drop of the methyl orange solution onto the paper and allowing it to dry, when the paper is placed in a solvent, the components will move up the paper at different rates based on their chemical properties. This allows for separation and identification of the components in the mixture.
IN ACID: it turns methyl orange pink In base: it turns methyl orange yellow
Methyl orange is yellow in alkaline conditions.
