Hoffman Voltameter (PTFE) with electrodes
Product Code : JA-LE-6855
The Hoffman Voltameter (PTFE) with electrodes (SKU JA-LE-6855) is used to decompose water by electrolysis, determine its composition from the gas volumes and find the electrochemical equivalent of hydrogen. The glass unit has two connected limbs of about 50 ml each, graduated 2 to 50 ml, with a stopcock at the top of each limb and an integral reservoir tube with funnel-shaped bulb. It comes with 2 carbon and 2 platinum electrodes in a protective packing case. This Hoffman voltameter is made by JaincoLab.
Specifications
The voltameter is set up vertically on a clamp and stand and connected to a 12 V DC supply. Electrolytes named in the source are water with molar sodium or potassium sulphate, or sulphuric acid.

Experiments with the Hoffman voltameter
Reading the hydrogen and oxygen volumes on the graduated limbs shows the 2:1 ratio in water, and timing the current lets students work out the electrochemical equivalent of hydrogen.
- Decomposition of water into hydrogen and oxygen
- Composition of water by gas volumes
- Electrochemical equivalent of hydrogen
- Comparing carbon and platinum electrodes
