Blue.
Methyl red turns red in acidic solutions (under pH 4.4), yellow in alkaline solutions (pH over 6.2),and is orange in between.
red
it changes into red colour
IN ACID: it turns methyl orange pink In base: it turns methyl orange yellow
The solution doesn't change colour for chromic acid will not react with a tertiary alcohol, therefore it remains a light shade of orange

The color of methyl orange is red. The color is red when the acetic acid is below pH 3.1.
IN ACID: it turns methyl orange pink In base: it turns methyl orange yellow
Methyl red is an adequate indicator.

Methyl orange is a pH indicator frequently used in titrations. It is often chosen to be used in titrations because of its clear colour change. Because it changes colour at the pH of a mid-strength acid, it is usually used in titrations for acids. Unlike a universal indicator, methyl orange does not have a full spectrum of colour change, but has a sharper end point. Check out the Related Link for more details.
acid base indicator or pH indicatorSome examples of acid base indicators are: gentian violet, malachite green, thymol blue, methyl yellow, bromophenol blue, congo red, methyl orange, screened methyl orange, bromocresol green, methyl red, methyl purple, phenolphthalein, indigo carmine, hydrangea flowers, anthocyanin, litmus, red cabbage, and purple cauliflower.
It depends on the indicator and there are quite a few. Methyl Red, Methyl orange and Phenolphthalein are 3 such acid-base indicators. If phenolphthalein is used as the indicator and added to the base it would immediately turn red/pink. As acid is titrated in, the red/pink will disappear and go colorless.
Methyl orange and methyl red both shows red color in a HCl solution where pH is lesser than 4.71.
Looking at the structure, the methyl group is closer to the carboxylic acid group on2-methyl-3-nitrobenzoic acid, while the nitro group is closer to the carboxylic acid group on 3-methyl-2-nitrobenzoic acid.
