Electrolysis Kit
Product Code : LSK-CL-10248
Electrolysis Kit (SKU LSK-CL-10248) is a simple set of electrodes, leads and seals for splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen using ordinary test tubes and a beaker. It lets students confirm the constitution of water with their own hands rather than watching a glass voltameter from a distance, which makes it a good fit for group work in secondary science. Science Lab Supplies delivers the kit from Ambala, India to schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The table records each part of the water electrolysis kit separately. In short, two heavily insulated stainless steel electrodes connect to a power source through two leads with extra-large clips, and two rubber gaskets seal the filled test tubes while they are inverted into a beaker. Glassware is not part of the kit.

Applications and Experiments for the Electrolysis Kit
The kit is used to decompose water by electrolysis and collect the two gases in separate test tubes. Students compare the volumes, then test each gas: hydrogen gives a squeaky pop with burning Wood Splints and oxygen relights a glowing one, confirming what water is made of.
- Class 10 science (NCERT): electrolysis of water as a decomposition reaction, with Sodium Sulphate dissolved to help the water conduct.
- Class 8–9 science: evidence that water is a compound of hydrogen and oxygen.
- Class 12 chemistry: introductory electrolysis before quantitative voltameter work, powered from a Power Supply Unit/ Block for DC.
Hydrogen is flammable, so test only the small volumes collected and keep flames away from the power source. Any acid or salt added to the water should be handled with eye protection and teacher supervision.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each kit contains two insulated stainless steel electrodes, two connection leads with extra-large clips and two rubber gaskets. Glassware is not included, so the test tubes and beaker come from your lab or can be added to the order; a power source is also not included and can be quoted.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Because the kit suits group work, it can be quoted as one per bench or as a single demonstration set. Science Lab Supplies states packing, delivery time and price for the quantity you name, and can add beakers, test tubes and a power supply from its school chemistry lab equipment in India.
As a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Malaysia, Peru, Egypt, Iraq, Nigeria and Kenya. Science Lab Supplies is registered for GST (GSTIN 06ADEPJ0574F2ZU). A class set of kits can be requested from the contact page or put together in the enquiry cart, and the lab tender page covers purchases made under a tender.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is glassware included in the Electrolysis Kit?
No. The kit supplies the electrodes, leads and gaskets only. You need two test tubes and a beaker, which can be taken from the lab or added to the quotation.
What are the rubber gaskets for?
They seal the filled test tubes while they are turned upside down and lowered into the beaker, so the tubes stay full of water until the gases displace it.
Who supplies the Electrolysis Kit?
Science Lab Supplies is the supplier, sending the kit from Ambala, India, and it can add voltameters, electrodes, glassware and power supplies to the same quotation for school electrochemistry.
How does this kit differ from a Hoffman voltameter?
This kit uses ordinary test tubes and stainless steel electrodes for simple group work. A Hoffman voltameter is a graduated glass apparatus used for measured gas volumes.
