If a very small amount of $HPh$ (phenolphthalein) is added to a $0.1 \ M$ aqueous solution of $CH_3COONa$,the fraction of the indicator that exists in the colourless form is:
$[K_b(CH_3COO^{-}) = 10^{-9}, pK_a(HPh) = 9.6, \log 2 = 0.3]$

Given below are two statements.
Statement $I:$ In the titration between a strong acid and a weak base,methyl orange is a suitable indicator.
