Hoffman Voltameter is a specialized laboratory apparatus used to demonstrate and measure the electrolysis of water into hydrogen and oxygen gases. It consists of a central reservoir connected to two vertical graduated gas-collection tubes (electrodes) and is typically made from borosilicate glass for chemical resistance and clarity. Platinum or carbon electrodes are used at the base of each tube to conduct electric current. This apparatus is widely used in chemistry and physics education to visually demonstrate the principles of electrolysis, electrochemical reactions, gas laws, and stoichiometry.

conical flask
Conical flasks, also known as Erlenmeyer flasks, are widely used laboratory glassware characterized by a flat bottom, conical body, and a narrow neck. Made typically from borosilicate glass, they are designed to hold, mix, and heat liquids safely. The narrow neck helps reduce evaporation and splashing during experiments. Conical flasks are essential for titrations, culturing microorganisms, and general solution preparation in laboratories and industrial settings.
Expansion of Liquid Apparatus
Expansion of Liquid Apparatus is a laboratory device designed to measure the volumetric expansion of liquids when subjected to temperature changes. It consists of a graduated glass tube connected to a bulb containing the test liquid. As the liquid heats and expands, the change in volume is observed and recorded through the graduated scale. This apparatus is essential in physical chemistry and materials science for studying thermal expansion coefficients and understanding liquid behavior under varying thermal conditions. It is commonly made from chemically resistant borosilicate glass to withstand thermal stress and chemical exposure.
Gas Jar Lid
Gas Jar Lid is a specially designed cover used to securely seal gas jars, which are containers used to collect, hold, or measure gases in laboratory experiments. Typically made from chemically resistant materials such as glass or plastic, the gas jar lid ensures a tight seal to prevent gas leakage during chemical reactions, gas collection, or storage. It often features one or more ports or holes to allow insertion of tubes, thermometers, or gas delivery apparatus, facilitating controlled gas flow and measurement. Gas jar lids are essential for safe and efficient gas handling in scientific research and educational laboratories.
Gas Jar with Lid
Gas Jar with Lid is a durable, chemically resistant container designed for the collection, storage, and measurement of gases in laboratory settings. Typically made from high-quality borosilicate glass or plastic, the gas jar comes with a tight-fitting lid—often equipped with ports or holes—to ensure an airtight seal and facilitate gas transfer or measurement. This apparatus is essential for conducting gas collection experiments safely and accurately, preventing contamination and gas loss. Widely used in educational, research, and industrial laboratories, gas jars with lids enable efficient handling of gases such as oxygen, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and other experimental gases.
Microscope mirror
A Microscope Mirror is an optical accessory used to direct and focus external light onto the specimen being examined under a microscope. Traditionally mounted beneath the microscope stage, the mirror reflects ambient or artificial light upward through the condenser and specimen to illuminate the sample. Microscope mirrors typically have one flat and one concave reflective surface, allowing users to adjust the intensity and focus of the light beam. Made from highly polished glass or metal with reflective coatings, these mirrors are essential in microscopes lacking built-in illumination systems or as backup lighting aids. They enhance visibility, contrast, and detail, making them valuable in educational, medical, and research laboratory settings.
