Hi Jason,

When you use the standard setup as Hoffmann's Voltameter and using
PLATINUM Electrodes for Electrolysis of dilute sulphuric acid
(acidified H20), you will get only H2 gas and O2 gas.

I can't remember whether I did the experiment or not (too long ago),
but it is in my secondary school Chemistry text book.
