Methyl orange is unsuitable for Na2CO3 and HCl titration because it changes color too early, before full neutralization occurs. The reaction involves a weak base and a strong acid, with an acidic equivalence point, making phenolphthalein a better indicator.

Methyl orange is not suitable for Na2CO3-HCl standardization because the reaction involves a weak base (Na CO3) and a strong acid (HCl), giving an equivalence point in the pH range of about 4-5, which is outside methyl orange’s accurate transition range (3.1-4.4), leading to endpoint error.
