Solution

The correct option is B HCl solution
In a solution becoming less acidic, methyl orange moves from red to orange and finally to yellow with the reverse occurring for a solution increasing in acidity. The entire colour change occurs in acidic conditions. Therefore with HCl, it gives red colour.
