It's a for the second one.
I'm pretty sure of it.
And you spelt it wrong. It's phenolphthalein. Not phenolphtlaelin.
Also it's neutralizations...

It's either methyl orange or bromothymol blue.

Wrong forum, btw. You should try the High School Life forum . . . there should be lots of chemistry nerds there.

I just looked it up, methyl orange looks like the answer.

"Chemists use methyl orange as an indicator in the titration of weak bases with strong acids. It changes from red (at pH 3.1) to orange-yellow (at pH 4.4)"
General Chemistry Online: FAQ: Acids and bases: What is methyl orange? How is it made?

"For strong acids and weak bases methyl orange is the indicator of choice."
