Want this question answered?
The color of methyl orange is red. The color is red when the acetic acid is below pH 3.1.
Phenolphthalein Methyl Orange Litmus Bromophenol Blue
Methyl orange is also known as p-dimethylamino-azobenzenesulfonic ACID.As stated on wikipedia, hence I would have to say that it is in fact an acid, interestingly, it is an acid that tells us whether a substance is an acid or alkali, by changing colour.It is known as an INDICATOR.In:Acid=Red. Alkali=Yellow. Neutral=Orange, thus the name methyl orange.HAHA.There you go. A decent answer.Hope this helps.

discussion for the titration of NaOH and HNO3 by using phenolphthalein & methyl orange indicators
Since the titration is between a strong acid and a weak base, methylorange should be suitable as the equivalence point is around pH 5. The K of the indicator should be equal to the pH at the end point. Methyl orange is that indicator
Methyl Red
Acid Alkali Indicator Details Strong Strong Methyl Orange pipette alkali, and burette acid (change from yellow to light pink when neutralised) Weak Strong Phenolphthalien pipette acid, and burette alkali (change from colouless to salmon pink when neutralised) Strong Weak Methyl Orange pipette alkali, and burette acid (change from yellow to light pink when neutralised) Acid Alkali Indicator Details Strong Strong Methyl Orange pipette alkali, and burette acid (change from yellow to light pink when neutralised) Weak Strong Phenolphthalien pipette acid, and burette alkali (change from colouless to salmon pink when neutralised) Strong Weak Methyl Orange pipette alkali, and burette acid (change from yellow to light pink when neutralised)
a strong acid is about 1 or 2 possibly in a pH scale and it turns many pH indicators (such as thymol blue, orange IV, methyl orange, methyl red and litmus paper) red.
first of all remember that titr'n b/w weak acid and weak base is impossible. weak acid*strong base-phenolphthalein str acid*weak base-methyl orange if both are strong can use both.
It depends on the base used. For strong acid vs. strong base, phenolphthalein can be used as indicator. For strong acid vs. weak base, methyl orange can be used as indicator.
IN ACID: it turns methyl orange pink In base: it turns methyl orange yellow
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
It turns red.
It depends on the acid or base used. For strong acid vs. strong base, phenolphthalein can be used as indicator. For strong acid vs. weak base, methyl orange can be used as indicator. For weak acid vs. strong base, phenolphthalein can be used as indicator.
3.1 to 4.4 depending on the concentration of the acid.
The color of methyl orange is red. The color is red when the acetic acid is below pH 3.1.
