Methyl Orange Disodium Salt Extra Pure is a high-purity pH indicator commonly used in titrations and analytical chemistry to determine acidity levels. It exhibits a sharp color change from red in acidic environments to yellow in alkaline conditions, typically within the pH range of 3.1 to 4.4. This disodium salt form ensures excellent solubility in water, making it especially reliable for use in aqueous solutions. Its stability and sensitivity make it ideal for laboratory applications involving strong acid–base reactions, particularly in titrations of mineral acids. Methyl Orange Disodium Salt Extra Pure is a trusted choice for consistent and accurate results in both educational and professional lab settings.
Methyl Orange Disodium Salt Extra Pure
Primary Uses
- pH Indicator in Titration – Widely used in acid-base titrations to detect endpoint, changing color in the pH range of 3.1 (red) to 4.4 (yellow).
