In solution, its colour changes with ; below pH 3.1 it is red, above pH 4.4 it is yellow. 2).Methyl orange is a frequently used in titrations. It is often 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 , methyl orange does not have a full spectrum of colour change, but has a sharper end point.
