Methyl orange, HMO, is a common acid-base indicator. In solution it ionizes according to the equation: HMOaqH+aq+MO-aqredyellow If methyl orange is added to distilled water, the solution turns yellow. If 1 drop or two of 6 M HCl is added to the yellow solution, it turns red. If to that solution one adds a few drops of 6 M NaOH, the color reverts to yellow. a. Why does adding 6 M HCl to the yellow solution of methyl orange tend to cause the color to change to red? Note that in solution HCl exists as H+ and Cl- ions. b. Why does adding 6 M NaOH to the red solution tend to make it turn back to yellow? Note that in solution NaOH exists as Na+ and OH- ions. How does increasing OH- shift Reaction 3 in the discussion section? How would the resulting change in H+ affect the dissociation reaction of HMO?

What is a salt? List some anions that behave as weak bases in water. List some anions that have no basic properties in water. List some cations that behave as weak acids in water. List some cations that have no acidic properties in water. Using these lists, give some formulas for salts that have only weak base properties in water. What strategy would you use to solve for the pH of these basic salt solutions? Identify some salts that have only weak acid properties in water.
