Abstract
It is well known that some molecules can change its structure upon different environmental conditions. Methyl Orange (C14H14N3O3S-), as others pH indicators, has not only its linear optical properties modified by the acid concentration of its environment but its nonlinear optical coefficients also changes with the pH of the surrounding medium [1]. This knowledge has led to the exploitation of Nonlinear Optics as a tool to determine the equilibrium constant pKa in organic solutions [2].
