APhenolphthalein
BMethyl orange
Correct Answer
CPotassium ferrocynide
DPotassium ferricynide

Solution

The indicator used in the titration of sodium carbonate with sulphuric acid is $$Methyl \ orange$$ Because it changes colour at the pH of a mid-strength acid, it is usually used in titration for acids. Unlike a universal indicator, methyl orange does not have a full spectrum of colour change, but it has a sharp end point.
