Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
Methyl orange is a typical laboratory indicator used to evaluate acids and bases. During the titration procedure, a few drops of methyl orange are added; if the solution is extremely acidic, it turns red; as the acidity reduces, the colour changes to orange, then yellow in the basic solution. Therefore, it is a type of synthetic indicator.
The corrected statement would be, “Methyl orange turns red in an acidic solution”.
