Methyl Orange is an indicator that is used to indicate the equivilance point of and acid-base titration. In acidic environments, it turns red and in basic environemnts, or pH of 4.4 and higher, it turns yellow. It is prepared by treatment of helianthine with sodium hydroxide , helianthine is obtained by coupling diazotised sulphanilic acid with N,N-dimethylaniline .

Paper chromatography with screened methyl orange?

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.

What is the similarities between both methyl orange and screen methyl orange?

Methyl orange and screened methyl orange are both synthetic dyes commonly used as indicators in titrations. They both change color at specific pH ranges: methyl orange transitions from red to yellow in acidic solutions, while screened methyl orange transitions from yellow to red in basic solutions. Both dyes are water-soluble and widely available for laboratory use.


How do you prepare methyl orange indicator for titration?

To prepare methyl orange indicator for titration, dissolve 0.1g of methyl orange powder in 100mL of distilled water. This will give you a 0.1% solution of methyl orange which is suitable for use as an indicator in acid-base titrations.
