Overview | Methyl orange is an orange powder or flake crystal, insoluble in ethanol, slightly soluble in water, easily soluble in hot water, and is composed of p-aminobenzene Sulfonic acid is coupled with N,N-dimethylaniline through diazotization reaction. Methyl orange is used as an indicator for acid-base titration. 0.1% concentration is generally used (0.1 grams of methyl orange can be dissolved in 100 ml of hot water). It exists in the form of sulfonic acid in acidic solution. Because the sulfonic acid group can form an internal salt with the alkaline dimethylamino group in the molecule, a benzene ring is transformed into a quinone structure and becomes red. Methyl orange is yellow in the form of sodium sulfonate in neutral or alkaline solution, and the pH value in the color change range is 3.1~4.4. |
application | methyl orange has been used for pH control of chemical reactions and acid-base titration analysis of chemical products and intermediates in laboratory and industrial and agricultural production. The residual pH value on the weaving in the printing and dyeing industry should be measured and washed with an indicator to make the weaving neutral. If the cloth has acidity, dyeing or printing with reactive dyes will affect its color and fastness. The disadvantage of methyl orange indicator is that the yellow-red color is more difficult to identify, and it has now been replaced by a wide range of indicators. Methyl orange is also an azo dye, which can be used for printing and dyeing textiles. |
degradation method | a method for photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange by graphene-supported titanium dioxide, which comprises the following steps:(1) dispersing graphene oxide into a mixed solution with a concentration of 50mg/L to 500mg/L, ultrasonic for 30min;(2) transferring 100ml to 300ml of mixed solution to a constant temperature water bath at 45 to 60 ℃, under the action of magnetic stirring, drop 1~3ml of TiCl3 solution with a mass concentration of 15% ~ 20%, add 0.05ml of drip nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether ammonium surfactant, react for 120min, and wait for the mixture to cool;(3) Pour the mixture into a hydrothermal reaction kettle, place it in an oven at 150 ℃ ~ 180 ℃ for 8~10h, naturally cool, centrifuge, wash it with distilled water and anhydrous ethanol for 2~3 times, and dry it in an oven at 80 ℃ ~ 90 ℃, the solid powder was obtained, which was GO/TiO2 composite material. (4) 0.1~1g of the prepared GO/TiO2 composite was placed in 100mL of methyl orange solution with a concentration of 20mg/L respectively, ultrasonically for 30min, stirring in the dark for 30min, adding 1~3mL of hydrogen peroxide dropwise into the mixed solution, placing under a light source, the solution was 6cm away from the light source, and degrading methyl orange under light irradiation. |
acid-base titration indicator | methyl orange is a kind of acid-base titration indicator commonly used in analytical chemistry. the pH of aqueous solution with a concentration of 0.1% is 3.1 (red) ~ 4.4 (yellow), which is suitable for titration between strong acid, strong base and weak base. It exists in the form of sodium sulfonate in a neutral or alkaline solution, and is converted into sulfonic acid in an acidic solution, so that the acidic sulfonic acid group and the basic dimethylamino group in the molecule form p-dimethylaminophenylazobenzenesulfonic acid The internal salt type (paired quinone structure) becomes a conjugated system containing a para-quinone structure, so the color changes accordingly, and it is not suitable for use as an indicator for titration of organic acid compounds. It is also used for spectrophotometric determination of chlorine, bromine and bromine ions. And used for biological staining, etc. Methyl orange has been used in laboratory and industrial and agricultural production for pH control of chemical reactions and acid-base titration analysis of chemical products and intermediates. The residual pH value on the weaving in the printing and dyeing industry should be measured and washed with an indicator to make the weaving neutral. If the cloth has acidity, dyeing or printing with reactive dyes will affect its color and fastness. The disadvantage of methyl orange indicator is that the yellow-red color is more difficult to identify, and it has now been replaced by a wide range of indicators (see "phenolphthalein"). Methyl orange is also an azo dye, which can be used for printing and dyeing textiles. |
Methyl orange discoloration reaction process | Methyl orange is a kind of acid-base indicator commonly used in analytical chemistry. It is in neutral or alkaline medium. The sodium sulfonate salt exists in the form of sodium sulfonate and appears yellow. In the acidic medium, the sodium sulfonate becomes the internal salt type of p-dimethylaminophenylazobenzenesulfonic acid (paired quinone structure), which appears red, the color change range is from pH 3.1 (red) to 4.4 (yellow), which is suitable for titration between strong acid, strong base and weak base. It is also used for spectrophotometric determination of chlorine, bromine and bromine ions. And can be used for biological staining, etc. methyl orange color reaction process diagram is as follows: preparation method: using p-aminobenzenesulfonic acid as raw material, in dilute sodium carbonate hydrochloric acid solution, reaction with sodium nitrite, diazonium salt and N,N-dimethylaniline coupling, methyl orange can be prepared. The relevant chemical reaction equation is as follows: |
phenolphthalein and methyl orange | phenolphthalein and methyl orange are commonly used indicators for neutralization and titration. their color change ranges are respectively: the pH of methyl orange is between 3.1 and 4.4, and the pH of phenolphthalein is between 8.2 and 10.0. If 0.1000 mol/L NaOH solution is used to titrate 20.00 mL 0.1000 mol/L hydrochloric acid solution, theoretically 20.00 mL of NaOH solution is used to remove NaOH solution, and then the pH of the solution is 7. However, if phenolphthalein is used as an indicator, pH ≠ 7 is between 8.2 and 10.0 at the titration end point it indicates. The actual calculation shows that when the titration reaches the end point, the pH of the solution is not necessarily equal to 7, but there is an error. This is caused by the color change range of the indicator, and the resulting error is within the allowable range and can be ignored. In order to reduce the error, methyl orange or phenolphthalein can be selected for the mutual drop between strong acids and bases. If one of the acid and alkali is weak, it is necessary to determine which indicator to choose according to the pH of the salt solution obtained after neutralization. Generally speaking: when strong acid neutralizes weak base, methyl orange is selected (the color change range pH is between 3.1 and 4.4, and the generated strong acid and weak base salt is acidic); When strong base neutralizes weak acid, phenolphthalein is selected (the color change range pH is between 8.2 and 10.0, and the generated strong base and weak acid salt are alkaline). Due to the large range of discoloration of litmus test solution, and the discoloration is not obvious, it is generally not used as an indicator for neutralization titration during neutralization. |
