Methyl orange is a pH indicator frequently used in titrations because of its clear and distinct colour change. Because it changes colour at the pH of a midstrength acid, it is usually used in titrations for acids.C14H14N3NaO3S

The anion form is yellow and the acid form is red. You will synthesize methyl orange from sulfanilic acid and N,N-dimethylaniline using a diazonium coupling reaction just like the one you saw in the previous experiment in the nitrous acid test for primary aromatic amines.

Chemists use methyl orange as an indicator in the titration of weak bases with strong acids. It changes from red (at pH 3.1) to orange-yellow (at pH 4.4): pH-related color changes result from changes in the way electrons are confined in a molecule when hydrogen ions are attached or detached.
