Phenolphthalein and methyl orange are two of the indicators which are used to differentiate between acidic and basic medium.

Explanation:

  • Phenolphthalein medium is used to stain colourless when present in acidic medium. However it stains the medium pink when present in this condition.
  • This is different in case of methyl orange which stains the solution red if it is acidic in nature and stains the solution yellow if it is basic in nature.
  • as a result these two indicators are adequately used to differentiate betweenthe medium.
