Apparatus for Demonstration of Electrolytic Processes
Product Code : SCL-CL-11456
Apparatus for Demonstration of Electrolytic Processes (SKU SCL-CL-11456) is a demonstration kit in which two electrodes dip into a solution in a beaker and a light bulb in the circuit shows whether current flows. With five electrode materials and two solutions, teachers can show conduction in electrolytes and deposits forming on electrodes. Ambala-based Science Lab Supplies supplies the full kit and prepares quotations for schools, colleges and training institutes as well as distributors and tender contractors.
Specifications
The table lists each component of the electrolytic processes kit on its own row. In short, a base carries one light bulb and two electrode supports; carbon, copper, zinc, lead and brass electrodes are used in pairs in a beaker of 10% sulfuric acid or copper sulfate solution, with three conducting wires completing the circuit.

Applications and Experiments for the Electrolytic Processes Apparatus
The apparatus demonstrates that acid and salt solutions conduct electricity, that the bulb glows only when the circuit passes through an electrolyte, and that copper is deposited on the cathode during electrolysis of copper sulfate. Swapping electrode pairs lets classes compare metals.
- NCERT Class 8 science: chemical effects of electric current and electroplating.
- NCERT Class 10 science: electrolysis and the reactivity of metals.
- Class 12 chemistry: electrolytic conduction and products of electrolysis, with a second solution prepared in a spare Chemical Glasses (Beaker) 250ml.
- Diploma and teacher-training labs: planning safe electrolysis demonstrations.
Sulfuric acid is corrosive and copper sulfate is harmful; lead electrodes are toxic to handle. Wear chemical-resistant Gloves - Protective and Protective Glass eyewear, wash hands after use, and keep the kit under teacher supervision.
Standard Scope of Supply
The kit contains the base with one light bulb, two electrode supports, carbon, copper, zinc, lead and brass electrodes, 10% sulfuric acid solution, copper sulfate solution, one chemical beaker and three conducting wires. Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Quotations are available for one kit or for a full set for every lab bench, and each one lists the packing, delivery time and price for the number requested. Refill solutions and spare electrodes can be priced on the same quotation as the kits themselves.
Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Malaysia, Peru, Egypt and Iraq as a registered exporter holding an Importer-Exporter Code. Science Lab Supplies is registered for GST (GSTIN 06ADEPJ0574F2ZU). Send the kit count and any refill needs from the contact page, or stack items in the enquiry cart; institutions under tender rules can start at the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the light bulb show?
The bulb is in series with the electrodes, so it glows only when current passes through the solution. It gives a clear signal that the liquid is an electrolyte and that the circuit is complete.
Why are five electrode materials included?
Carbon, copper, zinc, lead and brass electrodes let teachers compare inert and reactive electrodes and show how the electrode material affects what happens at each pole.
Who supplies the Apparatus for Demonstration of Electrolytic Processes?
Science Lab Supplies, working from Ambala, India, is the supplier of this electrolysis demonstration kit. It fills single-kit orders for schools, colleges and institutes and prices larger orders for distributors and tender contractors.
How should the solutions be stored?
Keep the sulfuric acid and copper sulfate solutions in closed, labelled bottles away from students' reach, as your laboratory's chemical storage rules require.
